I'm still here...

Ack! A whole week sans internet - the Mardi Gras carnival had everything shut down Monday to Wednesday this week (which also means that the postcard-substitute letters I've sent won't even have been picked up until today, and thus have almost no chance of beating me home). As regards carnival itself, I shall simply draw your attention to the old saying "gay as a spring parade" and leave it at that. Today it is raining in a most impressive fashion, so the beach is not an option, likewise sightseeing. Hence I am in FDF again at my favourite quaint little cybercafé. Also, les parentals have endowed me with a large shopping list, thus allowing them not to venture out into the downpour at all.

Hopefully the sun will come back for a little while before I fly home on Saturday night, but at this point I'm really quite eager to get back - not just for the modern (and more basic) conveniences of home, such as a hot bath and my own bed (and free internet access), but for my friends. It seems that I'm no longer comfortable with a fortnight of total disconnection as I was a couple of years back...

Oh, well. How about we compromise by making him wear the pink hat?
