Tomorrow is Emilio's birthday. Emilio is one of the grandchildren. He will turn 7. Tonight, the family celebrated by having several of Emilio's friends come over for que que (cake) and conos de helado (ice cream cones) and play time.

Cumpleanos Feliz (pause) Cumpleanos Feliz (pause) , etc. During the pauses, Emilio's older cousin, Juan Miguel, would shout out chicharrones! It was pretty funny. After blowing out the candle, everyone was served cake, ice cream cones, and soda pop. Then the kids went outside to play.

ReplyDeleteKesa and I did go into town yesterday and to the "mercado de artesanias." It is a market where the locals sell their handicrafts. We only stayed for a little while, so I am going back today and to the National Museum while Kesa goes to the amusement park with the children. Later tonight I will write another blog entry about my experience at the market yesterday and today. Will, I think you are my most faithful reader!
