Eighteenth Blog - New York, New York

The Havaianas are getting exchanged for Manolos, frizzy saltwater ponytail getting replaced by blow dried, glistening hair and the bikini is left behind for a glamorous bridesmaids dress...Yes, I am going to the Big Apple for Alison's wedding!! I have to admit, as much as I love it here I am looking forward to a bit of "sex and the city" living :-) Manicures, pedicures, red wine, food that doesn't involve beans or rice... and it doesn't hurt that I have an awesome tan to show off!

In the past couple of days I have experienced the "Central American beach living" as my friend Fiorella (who is from El Salvador) calls it. First the airconditioning broke... which they fixed but then the electricity went out... which they fixed but then the airconditioning broke again.... which they fixed but then the internet broke....which they just fixed and hence I am sitting here wondering if the fridge is going to break any minute now or if the water is going to disappear.

The waves today were fun. Just small enough for me to catch on my own, but big enough to give you a little thrill as you drop. I would write more but the current was really strong today (=a lot of paddling) and then I had a training session in the evening followed by pizza with the Vista Guapa family, so I am pretty knackered now!! I'll be back on Tuesday
