At 5:30am I feel the pitterpatter of Nelly's hands on my face. "Happy birthday Patrick," she says to me with a sweet tone and a cute smile, then--in a much deeper (almost manly), foreboding tone--"get up." No P*, Nelly, no P; it's time to go to Vasa de Leche. The Leche Ladies don't need much help today--I think it's hard to get them to let me help them cuz I'm just so cute. Nelly telling them it's my birthday don't help, they make us sit and drink a couple cups of their Leche. Me and the other bros slip into our respective places of rest after we leave VdL and return to Kahuhu.
Fo' breakfast: Banana con leche Smoothie (Lorena knows it's my favorite). and, just I think bfast is coming to an end a Banana cake. I decide 4 pieces of banana cake is sufficient. After this we go to the Municipalidad for the kids meeting with the "Senor Alcalde" (San Bartolo's Mayor Jorge Bartholomes). At the close of the meeting--which the kids handled beyond all expectations, we all receive camoflage vests...or were they invisibility-cloak vests...I can't remember, all I know is the vests definitely aren't neon...no no, not neon, I would remember a color that bright for a while. I also recieve a singing of happy birthday and yet another B-cake (banana cake). This time I only want three pieces. The kids also continue shoving little finger sandwhiches in my mouth.
(time for bed, I will finish this saga l8er).
