Wedding and Puppies

Eventful weekend.

My volunteers, Amy and Blake, left. So we went out til 4am on Friday to have a proper good bye (although they went home way earlier, but what ever).

Then, Hugo and I got the reminder call on Saturday at 10:30am that we had a wedding to go to at 11am. We left our house at 11am, showered at Hugo's parents and got to the church by 12. There was still an hour left of the ceremony. (Or maybe it had just started?)

Hugo's cousin got married in one of the oldest churches in Cajamarca. Stunning. Then, we went to an elegant reception where there was endless drinks and dancing. And, Crazy Hour. After the band had played for at least 3 hours, the clowns and magicians and guys on stilts came in with party favors and the dance floor turned wild. I guess that is the big thing now - Crazy Hour - but since I am not hip, I didn't know what was going on. We danced during Crazy Hour and then we were done. Two consecutive nights of dancing is rough on the body.

Finally, yesterday Shakira gave birth to 10 little puppies that look like rats. They are all, except 1, female. That means it
will be more difficult to sell them.

Back to work!
