señor evans.

Instead of working last week, I took un poquito de vacaciones since Dom came to visit! It had been a long time coming, but was well worth the wait. The week started off greeting him at the airport with a "Señor Evans" sign. From there we headed to NPH where I gave him the grand tour. It concluded in el comedor at dinnertime, in which all the girls just HAD to get to know the Justin Bieber look-a-like (ha). As we were leaving, a group of boys caught up to us. We had a conversation a little like this..

Cluster of 13 year olds: "Kristi! Who's that?" "Your brother?"
Me: "Haha. No, no. He's my boyfriend."
Cluster: "Ohhh.. Un be-so! Un be-so!"
Me: "Too bad guys.. he doesn't understand Spanish."
[Pause]
Quick-on-their-feet cluster: "One kiss! One kiss!"
Us: "Hahaha."
[Kristina blows a kid-friendly kiss that Dom cheesily catches]
Cluster: "Ah, come on.."
Second stop: Antigua. We visited the Choco Museo, ate delicious banana bread, hiked El Cerro de la Cruz, and enjoyed a rooftop dinner of enchiladas and beers. Later, it was lake time! It was there that we entered typical tourist mode of taking in sun, playing card games, attempting to swim, hiking, and lots of eating. Overall it was a wonderful, wonderful trip with my non-Spanish-speaking Aussie :)
