Highlights of the first show included 2 for $5 long island iced teas, and the Celtics game being over before the show actually started. They also play dominos as a bar game there.
Highlights of the second show included the cop car chase/crash that held us in traffic for hours (on a side note cops there just have their lights on at all times to keep people in check, epilepsy style.), drinking Gasolina, getting the 'worm' from an OG bottle of tequila, the owner of the club SOS, and Asean dancing.
The Democratic primary was held the day after, so all clubs/bars/venues had to be shut down at midnight. A bunch of cops rolled up at 11:30pm to make sure it was going to plan. I guess alcohol has a lot to do with decision making in PR. Wild place, but terrible soda.
Last, but not least, we got to the Rain Forest. I can't stress enough how blown away I was. We drove around 10km into this dense Rain Forest on the craziest winding Porsche commercial road and walked along an uphill/downhill path for another 20 minutes to the biggest waterfall in PR. Alex and I both climbed into it. None of our new local friends would go near it. It was as Alex put it 'very spiritual'. I have a hard time being of a spiritual nature, but there was something about how loud and abrasive it was, and how calm I felt, as well as not being able to see anyone else while I sat inside of it that made me feel different. I'll elaborate more to people in person. I can't wait to get the videos up.
Hillary won PR, and lost the race the next day. Uhoh.
So, we did break down again. Our rear end went. So as I said before, we got a rental car (CarTour'08) and made sure to get down to Miami after our Atlanta gig to make it to PR. We returned to Alabama yesterday to the Ronan residence. Our van is still not fixed. Hopefully tomorrow. But we did get homemade pizza and the scariest ghost stories from Anita. I also talked with John about farm life in Canada vs. America. Great day.
So I'm just now getting to see the season finale of Lost. Its OK. A lot of stuff I expected. Ben is gone from the Island forever? Hard to believe. Sun is a bitch? Believable. I need to discuss via some message boards soon to get the full info on it.
I will be home earlier than expected. Its cool, I have some stuff to take care of.
