Well my family is now here and I have done nothing with my essay other than pick out which question I wanted to answer. I don't know when I will have time to do it... But I really can't wait until the last minute to do it... So much for a break. But my family arrived around 1:30 pm today so my friend, and future roommate, drove me to the airport to meet them. It took us FOREVER to find them. We sat in the car for about an hour and a half before they finally even got off of the plane. That's when it got even worse. I called them, and we were on the phone for probably about 20 minutes trying to find them to pick them up. I think we ended up going around the airport 4 times and we still didn't find |
them. So we just had them go and get the car rented while we waited in the car. It then took about another hour and a half to rent the car. Once the car was rented, we still could not find them. After fighting about it for forever, we finally met up at a Burger King about half an hour later. I hadn't expected it to take so long, and I only had had 2 pieces of toast for breakfast, so I was very hungry by the time that we finally met them. They also had not eaten, so they needed to eat as well. We saw that there was a place to eat right behind us with authentic Puerto Rican food, so we ended up eating there. I got mofongo and my first real piña colada. It was so good! I also tried a little bit of my dad's mojito. I didn't like it |
as much. I think I might have to try a flavored one. But after we ate, we took them back to my house so they could see it and I could get my stuff. I wish we had had more time so that I could show them Cayey, but I guess that will have to be when we go back through on our way to San Juan. So today we didn't do much but we'll see what happens the rest of the week. My reading wasn't all too promising so I hope that it proves wrong. I think what's going to happen this week is that I'm still going to do readings but I'm not going to post them until after break in order to save time (especially since I have to worry about my essay). But we're in Ponce now at the hotel so I think it's time to say goodnight.
