Rain Rain Go Away




Hi everyone. Sorry we didn't post yesterday. It has been rainy around here the last couple days, so we have just been having some lazy days. I took some pictures of the view from our window for the last couple days. Can you see the mountains through the rain? I have to admit, I love looking at them. Obviously, we don't have any mountains in Florida, so I am enjoying seeing them everyday in Colombia. But I could live without the rain, since we get plenty of that in Florida. :)

Yesterday we didn't do very much. As I said in my last post, we were going to go shopping again. We went to Maku and picked up a few things to take home. I picked up a couple t-shirts for Sean and Isabella, and a couple stocking stuffers too. It was a nice walk, and it was good to get out of the hotel. After the trip to Maku, the weather was bad, so we just relaxed in the hotel. We also did the same thing today, and didn't go out anywhere. The weather was gloomy all day and we were afraid we would get caught in the rain.

Things around the hotel are pretty much the same. There are still many families here, but they have all gotten sentencia already. They are just working on getting their last few documents done and they should all be leaving soon. We are the last ones here without sentencia, but we are staying postive that it will happen soon. We really believe we will get sentencia before the courts close, so we are just staying hopeful for that. In the meantime, we are still enjoying our time here. Isabella is a doll, and she is definitely worth the wait for sentencia. We are having such a good time with her, and she helps make the days pass.

Well, Isabella is already asleep and Nana and I are on our way to do that too. We hope each of you are well and enjoying the holiday season. (Oh, and speaking of holiday season....check out our one holiday decoration that we have in our room...it's the poinsetta in the picture above. One of the families that left this morning gave it to me. Now how can you not enjoy the holiday season - when you have a poinsetta in your room? :)

Lots of love to each of you.

Buenas noches from Colombia.
