Kidnapped

Yesterday we had a fun morning at school with presentations on typical sweets from Guatemala. It was part of our class assignments to present.  I being the not so great student opted to be an observer lol.  However, Maggie did an amazing job but I’ll let her tell you more about that.  After the break Nicole informed my teacher that she was kidnapping me for the rest of the day. We wandered and got coffee and sat in a garden and played cards and enjoyed just hanging out in the city. We picked Luca up and had lunch in one of our favorite spots. MJ’s friends arrived with 5 of their kids so we headed to their house for some pool time. MJ took over watch and Nicole and I went to get pampered again. Nicole got a mom’s night out and we headed to salsa lessons then dancing. You know you’re old when you have no desire to drink yet rather just enjoy the music and be in bed by 12:30am. I had forgotten how quiet the city gets at night (aside from the few drunk college boys strewn about the streets). I love the feeling of being in a small city like this where you run into people you have met at every turn. It’s nice to see familiar faces. It gives you more of feeling of belonging when you’re an outsider in a very different place.
