well, we missed 80 cm of snow while we were in cuba. about 80 more fell the week we got back, then the next week the same thing.... the only thing to keep us sane was... yup... the hot tub!

man... what can ya say to this, snow everywhere. the cat could not even get around

wow - we went to brisa in santigo de cuba! it was absolutely awesome. super cheap, super clean, super relaxing, many many hours by the pool bar, good food and some fun friends. cuba does not have the animals of costa rica, but it certainly is a great place to visit. because we were in an out of the way resort, we did not have to deal with any touristy type stuff. we just enjoyed the beautiful beach, water, sun, mountains and relaxed!

Eric, Dave, Nate and I set off to watch Bev (Mz Immoral) and June (Honey Knuckles) at RollerDerby. It was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much fun!

The pride parade was very community orientated this year. Lots of people and families strutting their stuff. There were 350,000 people on the beach for the celebrations, plus 450,000 at night for the fireworks!

On Saturday night we all went to Illuminaires at Trout Lake. My perfect event.... everyone wears glow sticks!!!!!! We wandered around with Todd, Christa, Robin, Eric, Dave and me and Ian. May people had made lanterns or light "constructions!
