day 23 - may 3, 2014

5 pm

this has been a very chill day so far - i failed at having a siesta, mike discovered a possible issue with the alternator of the defiant (however there is a good mechanic right across the street, and juan grande has the same truck, so we feel pretty confident about getting it fixed asap), we fed mama perro and visited the puppies, and refilled our pool (they tried to do it for us, but i feel awkward about watching some guy who gets paid $2/hour do a job that i am totally fine with doing myself).

there have been wedding preparations going on all afternoon - apparently the fiesta starts at 6. there have got to be 30 workers here who have been putting up chairs, tables, a bar, flowers, some weird looking canoe-type thing (that looks totally run down and out of place, wonder what that's about), and a gigantic cross. the most recent development has been the delivery of a generator the size of my car. eep. it's going to be THAT kind of night... not that we're surprised... but i'm starting to be seriously jealous of mike's 3 hour siesta this afternoon!
