Then we can across a strange plant. Abe told me that when these green little pokey like buds were totally ripe they would explode to shoot their seeds everywhere! I COULD NOT BELIEVE IT... then he picked one and sure enough, as soon as the bud was ripped from the vine (invision a really big rape being picked off the stem) then where the stem whole was SHOT OUT all the seeds from the inside!!! it was incredible!!!! I was totally entertained for the next 5 minutes shooting seeds at Abe!!! Hahaha it was a blast! Then we found a lemon tree and he helped me climb it to pick a fresh lemon!!! IT WAS HUGE!!!! like the size of a softball!!! It smelled so good! Never picked a lemon before... it was a good time!
Then Abe came over and had lunch with me and my family and we had some good little chats. I had wanted to have Abe over for a long time so it was fantastic to finally have him to my house. After we got done eating we both took a small siesta and then he left.
He called me back around 1130 and said to meet in front of Torro de Oro in 30 minutes. i ate a little somethin then got my sevici bike and rode the 15 minute ride to the meeting place. There is a little dancin joint were there is always live music so we went there and waited about 1 hour for the music to start. The whole time while we waited Abe and Leah ( a german friend of ours who is studying here) taught me how to salsa and do another type of step. I had a blast!!!! Finally got down the steps and then our friend Carmen showed up with a crew of friend from her masters program. We danced for another 4 hours or so then decided to go home! You guys are awesome thanks for all your help... its hard for a country swinger to become a formal salsa'er!
