Okay, so it has been a while (a long while) since I have updated. Traveling the world really gets your hands tied up and there is not a whole lot of free time at your disposal to catch up on life, if you will. I did something kind of crazy though and I just wanted to update you on that at least. Hopefully in a few days time I will catch you up on Puerto, Guate City, Antigua, and San Andres Island. Rough life, huh?
Anyways, from time to time you may be noticing the absence of question marks, apostrophes, and other necessary grammatical marks that are often needed when forming coherent sentence structures. Im not illeterate, Im just not down with Latin American computer systems. They are a real trip.
Getting on with my story.
It all started 2 nights ago when I was approached by one of my fellow team members with a proposition to join them in Cartagena, Colombia for a few days (a resort town on the Northeastern corner of mainland Colombia). Surprisingly enough the Cuba Libres in me dismissed the idea immediately as rediculous. However, last nights soberness made me think a little longer and clearer on the opportunity.
11am this morning at ADZ airport, my flight (paid in full) back to Guate takes off - without me. After 2 hours of negotations and consideration, I've decided to take the leap and buy my ticket to Cartagena. Goodbye Panama, MGA and Guate City. Hello Las Vegas (ironically, that is the hotel we are staying at and no I didn't plan it that way)!
I understand the spontaniety of my choice; believe me, I have butterflies flocking to all areas of my body. 'I'm flying to Colombia to meet an Egyptian' was not a phrase I ever expected to come out of my mouth. Totally on board with that. And the fact that abandoning my scheduled flight back may or may not have been the right decision for a variety of reasons. However. It is only for a few days... well actually... its for as long as I want. I suppose if resort life in Colombia turns out to be a crock I can always hop on the next flight out of there. I just couldnt help but wonder what I would be missing if I missed Cartagena...
