Quiet day in Antigua

Not too much going on today! Took it easy at the house mostly.

Did a little shopping with Donna today in el mercado! She didn't really wheel and deal very much, but I think we made out pretty well.

I had hoped to check out the Lucas Bros. Circus in Jocotenango, but it rained pretty hard for most of the night and I didn't feel like driving the moto in a rain storm.

Speaking of the moto ... she needs a name!

Here are the choices thus far:

Widowmaker - an ironic name in that I'm not married.

Simba - Sondro suggested this name after we got our pictures taken holding a baby lion!

The People's Moto - a nod to the fact that this moto was manufactured in the People's Republic of China.

Guate Cruiser - don't really need to explain this one, do I?

So it's time to vote!


If you have any other suggestions for a name, share it in a comment!

Alright, now be honest with me ... How many of you had a pool on whether or not we'd make it back from the beach alive? Conley? Come on - fess up! I want in on that action :)

I have a confession to make ... I watched Stealth the other day while I studied. But in my defense, it was in Spanish! I would never watch Stealth in English. Watching it in Spanish was a way to study!

    Anonymous: Pretty sure Simba's not gay ... didn't he marry Nala?

    Tom: I don't get it ... Very literary though :)

    Mi Mama: Haha! I like Ruedas de Suerte! Did you remember those words from when you studied Spanish?! Cause I have your Spanish-English dictionary ...

    Anonymous: Lol! I haven't received any notes in Guatemala criticizing my parking skills ... yet :)

    Blonde: Fro-ped is great! I'm going to save that name for the next moped I buy!
