today, Krisanna and I had the chance to head downtown for a relaxing evening on the town! Our day contained several “firsts” and exciting memories. Here are a few!
- we made it to the metro station and embarked on our first adventure on the metro by ourselves!
- When we got to the station, there was NO parking. We thought about parking on the edge, or curb like some of these people..
but there were policia everywhere and they make us nervous, so we opted for praying that we found an obviously legal spot. - After we drove all the way around the edge of the parking lot, we found one. :) amazing how God answers even the smallest of prayers!
- We took a trip on the metro and they weren't on strike (like they seem to be a lot)!
- We found some sweet deals downtown at the shops. :)
- we tried something new for dinner and got fresh-squeezed lemonade for 50 cents. :)
- we got free starbucks drinks (samples... not quite up to the regular free drink status)
- we got winked at my the metro driver. Haha good thing he has no access to the outside world!
- We saw a couple people throwing flaming batons downtown.
- We sat along the oceanfront and people watched... and fish watched... and eavesdropped... and sat at this gorgeous fountain...
- and I think that sums it up. Today was a good day. :) and tomorrow will be too.
Now, off to bed, to rid myself of a sunshine headache, but I won't complain... even though my head didn't like it, my skin did. :)
sounds like you had an awesome day and it is awesome that you made it down there with no troubles.
