Fun Things!

Of course the entire weekend was fun....BUT....there were a few special events that were quite memorable. The first partially happened while Alexa and I were waiting to surprise Mary. We were driving to the restaurant and we noticed two grown men dressed as pirates. We found this a little odd, and kept on our merry way. Then as we were waiting for them along the pier, we noticed several other people dressed as pirates. We thought, well there must be some sort of convention or contest somewhere. THEN, we ran into this shop for some much needed a/c and we saw a sign for the pirate festival going on over the weekend. Aha, we found our answer. Then when we were out after the dinner at the restaurant, this HUGE group of pirates came in and one gave Mary an eyepatch. So cute!!!

I brought Alexa some Guatemalan beer to try!! Oooohh, what a nice sight of my bestest friend with some of my "home" cerbeza!! Aaaahhhhh......I love it!

One of the hardships here in Guatemala is no Starbucks. ha ha ha. No not really but I did drink a lot of Starbucks in Korea, so it has been just kind of weird to not have it here. I was hoping to add a Guatemala City mug to my Starbucks cityscape mug collection. So while in Fort Myers I made a trip to TARGET (wooooooooo) and had a double whammy when I got to drink Starbucks while shopping in Target!

Mary and Michael had a brunch on Sunday morning, the only problem was they had separate brunches for Mary's people and one of Michael's people. Well, Alexa and I were a little distraught at the fact of having to choose between our friends. So our plan was to go to Michael's brunch and eat quickly and then go to Mary's brunch and have coffee and hang out. Well, little did we know that Michael's brunch was going to be a four course meal (which was AMAZING by the way) and that I was going to get orange juice spilled on my by a four year old, so needless to say we didn't quite make it to Mary's brunch. Lo siento, mi amiga!!!! Here's proof we didn't just sleep in and only go to one brunch!
