Caco is in the house!

I just survived a weekend marathon.. well, suffering with a deep hacking cough at the moment but still I survived.

It started with a huge event planned by moi.. for work.. big fancy hotel gala type thing.. and my dearest friend Caco was coming to town.  The last I saw her was at my wedding in Bali in 2008!  So we started with a girls' slumber party at the hotel room at the Omni.  Great view, great company.  My best girl, Lorein came and cuddled with us as well.  Oh.. how I love my girls..

 The next day we hit King Spa, coz, it would be a SIN for Caco not to experience this phenomenon while she is here.  Love every short moment of it.. Only having 2 1/2 hours to spend at the Spa.. is a little torturous for me.  Quick hair blow and lipstick action .. and off we go to Lorein's birthday dinner at Villa Grill in Irving..

20 people, 1 huge bottle of rum latter, we are completed sated after the third round of picanha steak.  At spur of the moment we decided to crash a friend's party that supposedly quite legendary...  So we did..

We pulled into the white house across from the lake.. The music was blaring with some salsa tune.. great, it's a dejayed party.. scored!  We hung by the fire place outside with some live conga musicians.. dance a little samba.. amazed people with some of my african dance moved.. making friends..
Now off to the dance floor.  I spotted a couple of professional samba dancer in the room.  Don't you just love it, when that happened.  I requested Magalenha.. and got some french dance music and bhangra instead.     Caco was happy to hear something french.. When we were walking out of the party, we heard magalenha started playing.. Well, of course we dashed back into the house, took off our winter outerwear and started joining the samba crowd with their specific choreography..  Caco said "That was worth coming back!"



Sunday night, last night for Caco's visit.  We gathered at my house with Lorein,Felipe, Christopher, over fresh mussels, fish banana leaves, and greens.. After two days of debaucheries we came into the end of Caco's visit.  Until next time my friend.. The plan is to meet with her in Ibiza in September to celebrate her 40th b'day..   A bientot!
