Day 10: 1/5/12

The amazing Fudia
Beach day!
View of Freetown from hotel room
We woke up for our last breakfast with Fudia. She was an incredible hostess and always kept us laughing. Each morning, Les and I would work out together after breakfast and do push ups and ab exercises. Fudia always laughed and counted off for us and my favorite memory of her was when she actually got down and did a set of push ups with us. Another great Fudia moment was when Deb pulled out this ball of fuzzy gray yarn to knit with and Fudia scrunched up her face and said, "If you go out into the forest and found a dead animal, it would look like that." She was a piece of work and I will really miss her. We loaded up our stuff and the kids came out to give us one last round of hugs and waved us goodbye. We arrived in Freetown back at the hotel with no difficulties, checked in, and got to go to the beach. We were the only people in the water and besides the occasional piece of floating trash, it was perfect. I am such a beach person and was so excited to go and spend a couple hours in the water. It was cool to think about being on the other side of the Atlantic and nice to relax with the team. Dinner at the hotel was a much more enjoyable experience this time around, and we spent the rest of the evening playing some intense rounds of Mafia and hanging out together.
