We did one last Bike/Run before we left the island. We spotted this fruit/vegetable stand and bought some fruit. The lady cut up the mango for us! Score! Mangoes are the worst to cut.![]()
Yes, we ate 1/4 of a watermelon between us….![]()
After a shower it was time for our last breakfast on the beach…
I incorporated these “local ingredients” into my breakfast….
You can’t beat this view with breakfast! It was paradise…
We took a 13 passenger airplane back to the mainland. Ben sat in the co-pilot seat!![]()
Black Rock Lodge is so secluded! We were in the middle of the rainforest 🙂 There was a hammock right outside our door.![]()

The rooms are very minimal and rustic. It is an eco-lodge and feels like you’re “roughing” it on vacation a bit.
All the guests eat together in an open air dining room. It has beautiful views. ![]()
The first thing we did was tubing down the river.

We ate dinner at the Lodge.
They have a set menu, but let you choose from a meat or veggie option. I chose the veggie option veggie option – it was chickpea curry with rice and veggies.![]()
Dessert was an apple streusel – delicious 🙂![]()
The rainforest is beautiful, but it’s a rainforest – this means bugs everywhere. I’m not a big fan. And I got pooped on!

Monica: “Every time I think I’m an outdoors girl, I do something outdoors and a bug jumps on me and I think – ‘What the F, what the F?!’”

I want to thank you so much for taking the time to make this post — I, for one, appreciate it! Hearing someone else’s point of view gives me pause to consider. Anyway, thanks again and I’ll be back for more!

Those views look amazing and the veggie option looks delish!

I Loled at that quote. I think I’m sort of the same, especially if wherever I go has snakes
That small airplane sounds fun 🙂 Bugs actually don’t bother me so much, it’s usually my boyfriend who starts freaking out about them 😛

I love that you got in some running…there is no better place to run!
