Relaxed Sunday morning, no school so we decided treat ourselves to a good meal. One of our Brit friends was suffering from a massive hangover (altitude + hangover = mahooosive hangover!) - winner drinks shots of whiskey, losers do push ups... everyone was in some kind or pain! I found the number 1 rated restaurant in Sucre called Abis Patio where we had some very yummy BBQ burgers and brownie with home made ice cream.
We pretty much chilled out all afternoon and evening. At about 8:45 pm, Bernie went to Pollo Loco and got the last bit of fried chicken, rice and noodles. He came back and informed the boys who then ran to the chicken shop. 10 minutes later, they charged back in running helter skelter in all directions. Did you get some chicken, the 3 (Bernie, hungover Brit and myself) of us asked. We can't talk, they shouted, we met some girls!
Huh?
Turns out, while they were discussing where they could get some food outside the chicken shop, a fancy car with 3 girls pulled up and asked them if they wanted to join them at a party at their house, with a pool. So the boys (Brit, Iceland and 2 Brazillians) ran into the hostel to pick up some beers and their swimming shorts. Loco!
We chatted a bit wondering if they were either going to be robbed or have the best night of their lives? We were planning on an early night. But just then an American girl from Colorado arrived at the hostel and she was locked out of her room so we sat around drinking beer, listening to her hilarious travel stories, while she played country music in the background. Pops would have enjoyed her selection!!
At around 12:30 am, the boys got back and they were very pleased with themselves. Lots and lots of stories, but basically they had a great time. More than anything else, they were thrilled that they got picked up by girls! After a lot of noise, everyone got told off by the hostel owner and we went to bed. But all's well that ends well... Our Icelander may have something going with one of the girls and has a follow up date planned...
In South America, the women are very forward. At a bar, it is more likely that a woman will come up to flirt with a guy than vice versa.
