The whole group (about 30 of us) ate at the steakhouse and then headed over to the sports bar (shocker for a bunch of Americans, huh?)Steve and Brandon posing for the camera.

Of course, we tried to get a nice picture and Brandon just had to be a part of it. Now, if you know Brandon he is always the life of the party. He is social, hilarious and loves the camera (probably why he moved to Los Angeles a couple years ago to pursue acting).
The girls at the Disco after a couple hours of some dancing to mostly songs in Spanish! (Katie, Randi, Logan, Sarah, Kristin and the bride Sarah)
Thursday (my birthday!) we walked up and down the beach, in amazement at the number of topless girls, thongs and guys in speedos! This resort was completely NOT Americanized! There were mostly Europeans and South Americans and hardly anyone but the staff spoke English. We found the biggest difference is self confidence in the people from other countries (from their minimal amount of clothing and their willingness to pose with trees, fountains and animals like they are posing for Playboy) and the lack of clocks (we had one in our room and that was it, NO JOKE!), they aren't in a hurry, they have nowhere to be (which we shouldn't either since it is vacation), they don't say excuse me or sorry if they are in your way...it's just different.
That night we had dinner at the Japanese restaurant, it was AMAZING! It was our favorite place to eat!
Me, Cari and Randi outside of the restaurant.

Thursday was an early night for me b/c I was exhausted and it was my birthday so I got to do whatever I wanted! It was a great way to spend my 33rd birthday!
