First post of the year


Hello! So I know it's been awhile since we've posted anything, but it is honestly because we've been busy doing stuff that isn't exactly the most exciting for everyone to read about (going to the gym, working, eating, sleeping). But since is has been awhile, I suppose I can talk a little bit about Carnival which is coming up in a couple of weeks!

So Carnival takes place the three days before lent (ie fat tuesday -2) and is a huge deal here. Everyone gets dressed up, and there is lots of parades, and drinking, and singing, and all that jive.


So it still hasn't officially started, but the mood is in the air, both around town, and in the minds of people.




Just the other day I was changing in the locker room down at the pool, and someone started playing the carnival theme song on a tuba in the changing area. So I have a feeling that those days are going to be a blast, and we'll be sure to keep you all posted! Take care!
