my long weekend began on thursday, when more than 80 friends and family came for  my friends’ wedding, here in provo. they are all staying at the sibonne hotel, having the hotel and beach all for themselves! we started with a welcome bbq at grace bay beach, a day out on the boat snorkeling and eating conch, and a fun rehearsal dinner watching the sunset at somewhere.

it’s great to have friends over, celebrate their special day and meet their wonderful guests who have come from all over the world, new york, spain, denmark and so on. since the bride is venezuelan and the groom is spanish i get to practice my spanish too! plus, i really get to enjoy the island, as if i were on vacation myself!

today is the big day and i can’t wait to see the beautiful bride and groom getting married on our beach!

this has been a truly fun weekend to remember.

hoping you all have an amazing weekend as well!

happy weekend

what are your plans for this weekend?

i’m so excited about next week! a close friend from school, when i was growing up in madrid, is getting married here in provo. so we’ll be having a three day celebration, and i’ll be seeing three other friends that i haven’t seen since we were 14!

happy weekend friends!

we took this picture last week in blue hills, i’ve always loved this part of the island. whenever we have visitors over, we always bring them here – you can see the real caribbean feel, like this colorful hut (these candy coloured houses and this coloured palm tree!).

i hope you get to celebrate mother’s day in style, this weekend. since mothers day in portugal was last weekend…we celebrated on skype! have a good one friends!

happy 5 de mayo weekend

we’ve had a couple of weeks of not-so-good weather, but this weekend looks promising for the beach.  when the weather is not so good it means rain, no beach, no outside dining and basically not much to do – but thankfully that’s all over.

we’re also going to the cinco de mayo festivities by the turtle cove marina, it’s a novelty for me, so i’m looking forward to it. plus, we’re thinking of traveling to mexico later on this year, so it’ll be nice to get us in the mood.

hope you have a great weekend and the sun gets out for you too!

my mum and sister have left, and the house feels somewhat empty, but the time they spend here was amazing. i have to confess i was a little scared that they would get bored and two weeks could be too long for provo. we ended having things to do every day and still a few that we didn’t manage to fit in.

remember this post? we went to more than 10 different beaches – blue hills, blue mountain, smith’s reef, the bight, coral gardens, grace bay, pelican, emerald point, long bay, turtle tail, sapodilla, and parrot cay!

i have some serious-relaxing-at-the-beach planned for this weekend – and tonight i am going to see men are from turks, women are from caicos, if you’re in provo, be sure not to miss it.
