Christmas in Albany
Thursday, December 28, 2006
My trip to Albany was very fun. It was nice to see my sister and to meet all her friends. We spent the 24th at Fernando’s house eating Ajiaco, drinking Aguardiente and dancing vallenatos, salsas and porros which made the night very colombian-style.
I forgot to bring my camera but my sister took some pictures.
