The sun came up this morning. What I notice is that people are less inhibited here than in America. Ladies of all ages sunbath and swim without tops. Nice that no one here makes a big deal of it. They know how to enjoy life without the many hangups we Americans have. I feel safe. Many people of all ages are out late and there is no feeling of a pick up or dangerous scene late at night. All seem to enjoy eating, socializing and relaxing. The night begins at midnight.
This town has seen much devastation in the past. It has been taken over by many, including Castillian, Napoleanic, and Spanish Nationalist forces. The city has been burned and torn apart numerous times, but still it rises and rebuilds. Now it is known as a resort town and they have festivals throughout the year. We happen to be here during the Semana Grande, a fireworks festival, where every night a different country competes to put on the best show. The 20 minute shows are nothing but amazing.
