Class/bike ride/vball

I had to watch my lecture early this morning. It rained all morning--which seems to be the trend now that it is going into the winter season here. The weather is starting to get fairly cooler and more rainy. Every day it rains at least once but then will get really sunny and warm! It rained all morning--pouring on and off. Around 4 I decided to take a bike ride down the beach with some students and head to the large rocks on the South edge. The tide was slowly coming in so the sand was pretty soft and making it more of a challenging ride. It took about a half hour to make it down there. Then we decided to climb around the huge rocks which was a little nerve racking since the ocean was right underneath us and we were climbing huge boulders--hanging on by our hands. There were a few slippery rocks which I tripped on a couple times, ended up stepping in the ocean once so one show was completely soaked and the other dry. After about a half hour it was time to head down the rock and ride back---now the tide had come way in and the sand was even more soft--there were times I was riding through waves which was fun. It took a good 35 minutes to get back to the cabins, just in time for volleyball to start! The championship rounds were today----I was in it, but ended up losing---boo! It was a close match and both teams were really good. After volleyball it was time to finish packing for the trip this weekend. I ended up talking to Casey and Colin tonight----I got to bed around midnight---talking about how exciting for the 2 cities I would visit this weekend!
