Continuation from Tuesday

Well, I am really running behind with updating my blog but Eastern is crazy here. I have been constantly busy and just managed to catch up on my sleep so am finally once again bright and shiny o,)
Tuesday: After lunch I can not even remember what we did but probably went to Antigua. Okay here is goes I went to see the Cero de la Cruz which means basically walking up a hill and having a nice view. It was okay and I got to meet more people which is always good I guess. I took some pictures from that as well. The only thing is that tourists can not walk around there but need to be with a police escort and they do not like to be photographed so we always managed to sneak pictures anyway. At night it was ladies night in Monoloco and we were there but it was not as much fun as usual because the prices for everything had skyrocketed and there were just too many people to make it comfy and cozy. Mattheo and George were chatting about Mattheos list and true to his form he started hitting on Camilla. He is just one of the players around here! I got to meet a girl from Utrecht and got to chat to her group for a while. It was pretty much same old, same old. The highlight was seeing George dance in Sin Ventura which was just too funny. I meet Elmer after work and we chatted for a while.
Wednesday: School is some days good fun and others it is just a complete bore and at others really frustrating when one day your Spanish is going really well and the next day you think you are not making any improvement. I think Eric (the guy from Reds, could not even remember his name anymore) called me again and wanted to know why I was not there Tuesday night but actually his problem was that because it was so packed he could not find me which suited me just fine. However he invited me for lunch for the next day. In the afternoon we were off to Antigua which is what we do every day sicne there is nothing to do in Jocotenango. We decided to have dinner there and had a huge portion of nachos. Chelsea and me did not manage to finish that huge portion off. I did get to chat with Elmer though. Due to Easter everything has been switched around here so Trivia in La Sala started already at 7pm but since not mnay people were there it started slightly later. It was one of those days when it was all a bit weird. However the others showed up eventually and we got thrid place out of 6 teams so that was an improvement. It was a slow night though and we called it quits at 10pm - first time since I arrived to be home that early!
Time to run again since Elmer did not show up today for our date and Chelsea is all by herself so we will head off together now for Cafe Fernando. When we play Trivia we are playing under name Barbie Dolls and we got an invite for free coffee today.
