While my calendar says Daylight Savings Time has passed and the first day of Spring has officially begun, time and seasons stay consistent in Tena.
Last Tuesday a friend invited me to a nice dinner before briefly visiting the birthday party of a 19 year old from Britain. They were an interesting bunch to say the least.
For St. Patrick´s Day, I wore my green scrubs during the day, advertising the reason. At night I sported my Cleveland Irish shirt and enjoyed a meal with Katie´s family. They brought green dye so we drank some green beers! They had an eventful week of on-the-go activity and it seems they really enjoyed their trip. They probably now feel like they need another vacation to rest!
Saturday, Nicole brought me to meet her friends. They are from France, live here, and have a North American nanny. So their kids are trilingual. It was nice to meet them and afterwards, Nicole, her daughter Alexa, and I visited an indigenous area. We saw some traditional dance and crafts.
On Sunday, my friend Jenny invited me to lunch at her house. I had soup, fish, yuca, and juice. Then we visited the caves of Jumandy. It was pretty cool to walk around inside with the light on your head, being careful of the water and rocks above and below. At one part you have to swim/use a rope to cross. When you exit there is a beautiful view but a slippery descent.

Why didn't you tell me you were going to a cave? I could have totally mailed you my headlamp.
