I hope your day yesterday was much more interesting than mine. After spending the night tossing and turning, I managed to get up at 7:15 and head over to the pool, where I waited for the owner to pass by on his way to work. I had hoped to talk to him about the issues with our palapa plan. Unfortunately, he blasted out and while I did get a cherry wave, that was all.
So, at about 1:15 in the afternoon, I headed out again to wait for him to pass by on his way home from work. Or home from whatever. I waited at the pool. I waited under a coconut tree in the shade. I got some mosquito repellent and waited in the breeze until the air stopped, waiting for rain that never came. I spent about 4 hours waiting. When he finally appeared, he was on the phone, talking, and didn’t roll down his window, but did give me the “thumbs up” sign, and when I mouthed, “firmo, Ud. los planes?” he nodded “yes”. So, we’ll see. This morning I’ll see if Feliciano has any more news; I honestly don’t think we can continue without his signature in hand. But the rules change so quickly here that it is impossible to keep up.
