Hawaii Adventure
HAWAII ADVENTURE 1
Then we all enjoyed lunch together in some much needed shade in the grass, before hopping back in the van for a break from the heat. We found a beautiful, crystal blue lagoon right next to the ocean and enjoyed some seriously sweet views and swimming. Eloise was the first to take the plunge in. After drying off we headed home, where our first cook crew of CJ, Aphra, and Eloise made some delicious burritos! Everyone else chilled and enjoyed hanging out with the resident donkeys before eating. Some first hand words of the day: Brody: The swimming hole was so cool. Cold, refreshing, and crazy blue. Tyler: My favorite part of today was definitely learning how to go upside down on the 3rd line zip line. Noa: Waking up this morning and walking around as a group together was very relaxing and an awesome bonding moment. Well everybody, we have a big day tomorrow of beach cleanup and much more so we’re headed to bed after our evening meeting! Catch you all tomorrow! – Lily, Ruby, Parker

The Silver Lining to COVID-19 Quarantine
As we’ve all grown fond of saying, we’re living in a challenging and unprecedented time. No person in their right mind would describe these past few months as a “good time.” With all who have suffered from the direct and indirect effects of COVID-19, it’s hard to feel positive. I

And then it rained…
Well, I’m not sure if it actually did. But unless you’re on our Grand Canyon trip, it’s bound to rain at least once, right? This may sound odd, but we really like a day of rain on our trips. It doesn’t have to rain – maybe it’s wind or mud.
