January 6, 2025 - Maggie and Skyler Arrive!

 Roland is in Edmonton, where it is currently 3 degrees F.  I'm on the couch, with the door open, listening to the waves.  It is 73F, going to 89.  I miss him and am guessing he misses the weather here, if not the sofabed.

My computer is still not working right.  I've tried resetting to factory settings.  Nada.  I'm guessing it is a software issue, based on some other glitches (cursor randomly starts typing someplace new, in the middle of a sentence).  It's mostly just annoying.  I'm using my keyboard and onscreen keyboard.  Slow...

Other than picking up Maggie and Skyler up at 11 a.m., I have no plans.  It is a very quick trip - they leave Sunday morning, so I'm providing options and leaving it up to them.

UPDATE:  I wrote this last week while waiting to head for the airport.  It's now Monday, Feb. 10 and I'm finally catching up.  What a great weekend it was!

After dropping their bags in my apartment, we headed out to do a bit of looking around.  We started with lunch at the mall, then a drive to Cerro de la Popa to check out the views, then drove around town.  

Here are some photos.

 

Maggie and Skyler stayed in an apartment just like mine, on the 31st floor.  Amazing views!

I prefer their couch. 

And the location of the microwave.

Skyler and Maggie on the balcony.  They are smart, thoughtful, kind young women.  And fun.

I tried Chinese food near me and was disapppointed .  This was great.


Cheap and plentiful Chinese food from Long Hang. Great news! I can get 30 minute delivery for less than $1 fee.  I LOVE Rappi, which is the Colombian version of Uber Eats.

Waiting at the airport for international arrivals is so hard.  The crowds!  Kidding.  Small, clean modern airport.
