An interesting day

 I started out this morning by realizing my tablet was screwing up and I couldn't seem to get it back to normal so I had to do a hard reboot to factory settings and then try reset it back to normal....

That was a mistake because I gave myself a lot more grief. I thought I could easily reload and get back into the programs I run on the tablet (Google mail and Blogger among others). Initially I couldn't get any of the programs back because the Google algorithm kept me in a loop not letting me input information. The problem ended up being entirely my fault but not before Vanessa had gone over to our house and sent me more log-in passwords (which in the end I didn't use- sorry 'bout that Vanessa!). After a couple hours of scratching my head, watching some UTube videos etc I have the tablet working again.

Caro went for a walk on the beach and afterwards a swim. As she has done for the past couple of weeks she left her sandals and outer clothing on the beach while in swimming. At one point she looked back at the beach just in time to see she was being robbed!  She yelled at the thiefs just in time to save her stuff as they ran away!

Close call!

After Caro watched a few hours of the "Carnaval" from Barranquilla (on TV) we went to the store. While walking there Caro mentioned that she had learned that "Carnaval" is the top cultural event of the year for the whole country. At the store we picked up food for supper and I withdrew another 900,000 pesos cash from an ATM. That works out to about $C260.  We should be good now for the remainder of the trip as we use credit as much as possible.


Tonight we played crib. We each won a game and I won the rubber match by only five points. Close game!
