Day 7

Day 7--The Finale
On our last day in paradise, a few of us decided to go horseback riding. This actually turned out to be the worst decision we could have made. First they ran ou of beginner horses, so I was the only one in our whole group that got on a horse (I was intermediate). There were 54 people in the group I got stuck with. Do you know how annoying it is to go that slow with that many people? Anyway, I put up with the being alone part and we finally got to the beach we were heading for. They wouldn't even let us trot the horses! It was so boring. Anyway, wen we were at the beach we took about a 30 minute break, so I sat there hoping we'd be going back soon. The only real fun part of the trip was when I got to ride bareback in the water. I love bareback :-) We finally got back to the ranch (if you could call it that lol) and I waited for about an hour before the others got back. Most of the people had decided to go back to the resort when they found out there weren't enough horses, but a few stated. So we waited forever for the shuttle to take us back. Once we got back I found a bunch of people eating lunch so Noelle and I had a fun lunch with Daniel and Miguel. They invited us to go out with them later that night, but we weren't allowed to leave the resort so naturally we didn't go. That and we had to get up REALLY early to catch our flight the next morning. So, being the theatre geeks we are, we asked them if they could take us backstage, just to look around. They consulted the director, who was also eating there, and told us to meet them later that afternoon. After lunch we spent some more time in the pool and randomly met this kid named Wes, later called "accessory boy". He nearly drowned me several times becasue he decided to latch onto me, hence the name. We played a few rounds of chicken and Alex and I reined supreme, even against two fully grown strange men. We chalked it up to the fact that I'm hott and he's Korean. Shortly after this victory Noelle and I ditched so we could get our sweet tats touched up and then go meet Daniel and Miguel. The costumes they had there were so amazing, and they were everywhere! There were two big dressing rooms and the main backstage area just full of the birghtest and strangest costumes ever. Daniel was a bit tipsy and was very entertaining, right Nobe? lol After naps and showers we went to dinner at El Mercado and then saw the show, which was really good that night. Daniel and Miguel sat with Nobe and I for the opening act, which was some kind of Mayan dance thing. They felt the need to commentate which was a bit annoying. Then it came time for the main show, and it was AWESOME! It was a vegas theme and all the gorgeous star friends were in spandex hehe. We stayed after the show and did the "Hey Baby" dance a few times along with the "Dalle Pa'a" dance. Aftrer that we got ready for our last night of dancing 'til dawn. Arin decided to try a kamikaze, but instead of taking the shot like a champ, she sipped it. lol. I've never seen anyone take a shot in four sips. The result was Arin in need of a designated walker. We left happy and jut a little tipsy. It was a great last night. :-)

A pile of us enojoying the pool :-)


Champs in the middle right thurr..only it was the other way around when we were actually playing.

That thinng clinging on to me would be Accessory boy. We have no idea what Josh and Noelle are doing in this picture so don't ask.
