Our day started out with a search for coffee on the way to Todd’s friend’s Stu’s house. We didn’t have as much luck as we’d hoped, so we ended up at the True Mart 5 mins from Stu’s house. Once we got to his house, we loaded up boards and kids and made the drive to Natadola Beach.
We spent the day snorkeling with cool striped fish that would follow us, bodysurfing shore break waves, and surfing the little inside reef where parents can easily stand and push the kids into waves.
On our way home, we stopped back at the True Mart and everybody had smoothies. Before going back to the hotel, we made two final stops - to buy a coconut water from a guy on the side of the road (delicious) and then a massage place where Gordy got his first professional massage, which he loved! He said it was “the best ever” and he can’t wait to get another one.
When we got back to the hotel, we made rice, lentils and sautéed veggies for dinner, which would have been delicious if not for the “dark mushroom soy sauce” that we had bought by accident and put on everything. Gordy had one taste and decided he’d rather not eat. I tried to be brave and ate without breathing through my nose, but it was horrible. Gordy described it as smelling and tasting like a can of vegemite (sorry to our AU friends).
So, we mostly ate lentils and some snacks and went to bed relatively happy campers.
