GR: What have you been up to this week? 

Recently we’ve been staying in the RAC having a great time. There’s a beautiful view of a waterfall and a river we’ve been swimming in right below. We’ve already eaten so many cool fruits, made chocolate, made tortillas, and eaten LOTS and LOTS of rice and beans.
