Happy Thanksgiving to all our friends. We have so much to be thankful for (especially good health).
As I was about to get the doggies out for their morning constitutional I saw the makings of a nice sunrise so the camera came with us. We also saw the hummers battling for supremacy at the feeder but it was difficult to get a decent shot in such a low-light situation.
We had to skip the Thanksgiving celebrations at Joe's Secret Garden today, even for both seatings, because we had already made a commitment to go to Guy & Jvonna's gig on the banks of the Yanuncay. There was quite a crowd there and I was quite surprised that there were a lot of unfamiliar faces. I guess that we have to get out more..
Everybody brought a plate of food and their own booze and there was more than enough to satisfy this crowd. Music was provided by the unabashed Bohdi Kroll and virtually everyone was up dancing at some point or another. Cristina also tagged up with another Colombian gal, Alejandra, who did not sit down all night (good batteries I guess) and was energetic in everything, even a belly-dance demonstration.
The weather cooperated and a good time was had by all.
A big THANK YOU to Guy and Jvonna for inviting us and for hosting such a great event in their palace grounds.
I hope you enjoy the photos. That was the day's
excitement, Cheers,
Al
