I can’t believe we all survived the crazy Carnaval celebration in this town and it is all back to normal here now.
There is still a lot of cleaning up to do but it is all coming together once again.
I think next year I will leave town during the crazy time here because there are just way too many people here to relax and enjoy life. I could rent a small flat in a small town inland to avoid the crowds and come back when it is all over. I’m not into partying anymore and a nice fireplace burning in front of me with a good book sounds like a better plan to me. I’ll ask my lady if she wants to do the same and we will bring the cats along too and make it our own little sanctuary. The heating dealership closes during this time of the year because most of the people coming into town don’t buy any heating or cooling devices and the owner doesn’t like all of the chaos either. It sounds like we are becoming those old people who don’t like all of the partying and noise, I guess it is just natural to not want to be around the chaos when you are older. My heating rep told me that he and his HVAC tech wife leave for two weeks during the Carnaval celebration so they don’t have to worry about catching the tail end of it or something. That sounds like a good plan to me and maybe we will tag along with them.
