I'm back after a crazy weekend. I'm sorry I didn't post everyday, but I was having too much fun and didn't really want to go to my room to write about it (not that I don't like writing for you guys).
La Feria (the fair) was amazing! Everyone's hard work really paid off. The decorations were beautiful, the dances were fun to watch, and the concerts were really interesting (lots of reggae). I hung out with Lina and Paula a lot since they left today. Our last weekend together was a good one!
Since I took a lot of pictures I'm not going to write a lot about the fair. I hope you guys like it!
