Receipe for PCV 4th of July

Reading: In Cold Blood by Truman Capote

Ingredients:
7 Americans
2+ Ecuadorians, English speaking adds to the flavor
1 beach on the Pacific Ocean thanks to Strix
1 haba de cervezas (Pilsener, of course)
1 watermelon, soaked in rum
several boxes of wine
a couple of pounds of beef to grill
freshly made guacamole
Oreos
Doritos

Directions:

Start the whole event around 1 or 2 in the afternoon. It’s best to begin with the wine and guac while the beef is grilling. Slowly add the Oreos, Doritos and cervezas. After a few hours, rinse everyone off in the ocean. Return to cervezas, Oreos and Doritos, but also mix in the watermelon rum and grilled beef.

The result should be good conversations, starlit swimming with bioluminescents, a late night bonfire and a good night’s sleep in a hostel with running water.

In the morning, expect oily eggs and Nescafe (since it still Ecuador) for breakfast, a free surf lesson and lunch at a seafood restaurant known for their face-size smoking oysters drowned in cheese.

Fireworks were the only thing missing.
