weekend in Colonia

I'm back home, in front of my precious fire place reflecting on the weekend and watching 5 little MSN bars flash in the bottom of my screen. Why did the Windows people choose orange for the color that MSN appears in? Furthermore, why don't they let us change the color to match our computer's color scheme?! Probably because the people who designed Windows were men and they don't think about color schemes and how the orange doesn't match with my beach-themed desktop. Moving on - I spent the weekend visiting a new friend, Liz, in Colonia. She invited me to stay with her and meet some new people, so I jumped on the opportunity and the first weekend I could, I was there. I had a wonderful time and met great people! I think one of my favorite things about traveling and being a Christian is that you have an instant bond and relationship with people on the other side of the planet that you don't know; pretty amazing, isn't it?
