Tiny, fluffy, beautiful mewling balls of love, they are.
I had a really great Thanksgiving; Wednesday Kate and I went to Leonardo's, the Italian/pizza place, and had very good food, and a sad attempt at an apple pie. The next day was my school's Thanksgiving dinner, so Maru and I went, in semi formal dress (do you even KNOW how much I hate heels?), and I chillaxed with my homies, as it were, for a very nice evening. The turkey was good too.
Last night I went to a nighttime parade/fireworks display (antorcha), with Carlos. We met up with a bunch of others and spent more than three hours running about the dark, people-filled streets of Chorrera, watching the marching bands play and the various students marching with beautiful, candlelit torches. It was definitely my favorite parade that I've been to so far, and the fireworks were actually pretty enough to nearly justify the horrific noise. Also, I played Super Smash Brothers, which has been the only homesick point for me lately. Yes, you can laugh.
Today I am going to meet with Candice, my AFS friend who is living in Colón, to hang out around Chorrera. I will do my duty as a proud Chorreran and make sure that she tries both chicheme and bollo, unique to my city.
Love!
Laurel
