Wild parakeets!

So, Saturday Leah and I went to a huge park for a picnic with our friend Fatima.  It was a beautiful day and nice to be outside with friends AND the wild parakeets.  Leah and I must have seemed like crazy people, but it was so weird to feed bread to bright green birds that I have only seen in pet stores.  They were just so green.  We forgot cameras, but next time we go we plan on taking many pictures.  Fatima just laughed at us and told us we would have to visit her in Bolivia because she has monkeys in her backyard and she can't wait to see our reactions to those.

Saturday was also great because I got to meet a good friend of Katie Wenzler, one of my best friends.  Anna and Katie are friends from U of M and I've been corresponding with her for a while about her coming to BA.  She finally arrived and we hung out all night, met some of her American friends, and then went to bother Leah at her new job. Ah yes, for those who don't know, Leah got a job as a bartender/waitress on Friday and Saturday nights at a bar called Sugar.  Yes, she has left me to my own devices on the weekends, forcing me to go out and make new friends without her.  

Anyways, I'm off to some thing called la bomba (without leah dah) that apparently involves drums and dancing.  I have no idea what to expect but plan on reporting in full detail tomorrow, so hopefully that post will be far more exciting then this one.
