Army ants and scorpions...it's a jungle out there!

Getting ready to dive

I won the diving game!

Ostional beach

Today I woke up to millions of army ants everywhere outside! You couldn't even see the ground everywhere it was just ants. They were here because they were cleaning the jungle on their way to the ocean. Any time they came across a bug, they would sweep it up and carry it away. They were kind of interesting to watch and after about an hour they were all gone. But because they came it disrupted all the scorpions which made them come everywhere in our backyard! We found seven scorpions all crawling around. Some of them also had babies on their back and it looked so disgusting!!! After we got all the scorpions gone and the ants left we played coin dive in the pool. It's where you put a bunch of coins in the pool and then dive and see now many you can grab in one minute. I always win! Later on we tried again to see the turtles hatching at Ostional beach. Unfortunately no turtles came! For dinner we were going to go to this one restaurant but it was closed. Then we went to this other restaurant but all the people there were mean and didn't talk to us (actually the restaurant was at a weird hippie retreat where everyone has to take a vow of silence). We ended up going to this very nice restaurant at the top of the mountain where I got these really yummy noodle things called spaetzle. When we got home I went to bed.
