Hanging at the Big Foot in Léon

I found a little lizard friend hanging out in our room.  He scurried away as soon as the flash went off. 
We met some friendly Austailians Joshua, ad Hannah who introduced us to some more Austrailians, and we played a really cool drinking game.  Which I have modified slightly and now calling it, "The Kentucky Derby".  Basically you act like the four aces are horses and they have to  "run" to the finish line.  Each person places their "bet" on a "horse" by drinking a certain number of seconds.  If their horse wins, they can give out double  their bet in second of drinks to the other players.  After all bets are placed, the dealer then starts to turn over cards, whichever suit comes up that horse's matching suit will move forward one move.  The modification I am making is that there will continue to be additional races as long as their are cards remaining in the deck.  This way you will be able to guess better with each progressive round.  Anyways.  It was a blast and I typically hate drinking games.
Thursday morning Ashley and I awoke to a beautiful morning.  We decided to do the budget thing, and go to the super market only two blocks away and buy bananas and peanut butter.  The peanut cost about $4 USD and the bananas were less than $1 USD for 7 big ones.  Of course we didn't eat it all in one go so we still had bananas for snacks and plenty of peanut butter left.  Which is cool because Ashley loves peanut butter.
We ate our breakfast sitting next to the pool under neath these beautiful trees and flowers.
The hostel had a little kitty, named Bigfoot.  He really enjoyed my sandals.   My feet must smell like catnip something.  Because our cats also love to rub on my sandals.
All of Thursday we just chilled out.  And got a little acclimated a bit.  Good thing too, because I was starting to feel a bit of a cold come on.  I began to drink a to. If water and started eating vitamin c like candy.  When I awoke this morning I could tell the illness was receding.  Ashley had no problems, maybe it is because her immune system is a bit more used to fighting bugs since she is around sick people all the time.
