Its hard to say how long I'll find this city charming, but I hope I don't ever stop noticing the little pockets of beauty in everything here. Our neighborhood is filled with crumbling old mansions and jungle vines climbing through filigreed gates. The most beautiful thing on the walk to church yesterday? The street above - we reveled in a clear sidewalk with a full curb to the street and the sewers entirely underground. Plus, look - no garbage on the street.
Our home is filled with beauty as well. Our many windows all open to balconies, filling our home with light and providing ample space for plants. Because of the monsoon, it has rained for the past few days, with intensity varying from a light drizzle to a steady downpour. During a break in the rain last night, Sophia stepped out on the patio to enjoy the cool breeze.
