Random notes for later.

five minutes left at internet cafe. Posting my notes for my future reference, and in case anyone wants to have fun figuring them out. will expand later!

Sunday: Getting hair done in the morning by gay guy in the house, makeup – SHAVED MY EYEBROWS – just a little, but yikes! Ended up looking rather Colombian Carnival dancer type makeup and hair. Thank goodness it was the second wedding and I was willing to go with whatever. :D It was pretty, but it wouldn’t have been my first choice… :D Can’t eat lunch because slightly nervous and don’t want to mess up the lipstick.

Drive with family and Dad to the castle, get whisked off to put on my veil and tiara, end up standing by the cake for quite a while. All the girl cousins come over and each gets a gerbera with pretty white ribbon streaming down. Not sure what’s supposed to happen, but sorta go with the flow. Service and mass a lot the same.

BEAUTIFUL decorations, flowers everywhere, a bow on every chair. Cake, champagne by guys in white gloves, videographer, photographer, photo for the newspaper! Dancing, our slide show – a ???? band! Lots of dancing. Sunset over the ocean.

Monday: Go to Cartagena after lunch. Check into same hotel as last time. Balcony room. Night on the town – huge sandwich! Tasty pasta, fruit juice. Carriage ride. Bought the shaker thing. Peruvian hippies – drum and digeridoo at the same time. Walked into Hotel Santa Clara?? Pretty. Crypt, nuns, girl with LONG hair.

Tuesday: Island! Swim, tour – manglar trees, little town. Pollo sin pluma blue crab.

Wednesday: Coconut drink – cut down just for me! In the pool. Aquarium, Isla de Berut, too many vendadores.

Thursday: Change money again, go buy souvenirs. Vegetarian restaurant lunch. Watched LOST. Went to visit Ilsy and baby. Watched beginning of Indigo, out to dinner at family’s Arabian restaurant. Come home hang out with the fams, Collin bought new clothes.

Friday: We were invited out to lunch with some relatives, to a really nice Italian restaurant. Went to visit Tia Jolanda(sp?) and then the family of the cousin who died – AMAZING house. Gardens inside. Tons of rooms.
