much bliss for Sinulog, Havana nights and back to being a partyphile

...OK...this post is way overdue...i spent much of my time either hibernating (in someone else's arm hehehe) or getting drunk for the weekend with some of the best people in the world (claudine, jhem,soc, mahiar, arlyn, sheila, vida, rochelle and of course chokoleit - the girl version) hehehe... ...it was scorchin' hot Sinulog (and i'm telling you it's not overrated)...lots of beautiful people, colors are everywhere, everyone seems to be instant friendly (even moi hehehe)...though i passed up on all of my bookings and gave up the slutty tour guide role for beautiful strangers it was still more fun in a way i can ever imagine..to avoid much traffic and getting stranded, i just stayed at the Marco Polo hotel for few hours (got taste of some street dancing, henna tattoos and more)

***work it, like you own it Jhem :)

...then had one of the best view in the street parade (thanks to the hotel's exclusive bleachers)...enjoyed the view for more than 4 hours then decided that it's time for some fab dinner...







...plan is to get home first to take some shower but traffic was a killer that we decided to just go to the Cafe Havana being less glam wearing my ever dependable black Lacoste polo shirt, some acid wash jeans and some fine leather slippers -- and it turned out we're just fairly dressed as anyone else's in the bar :)





...the dinner was a seafood feast, got some octopus, a lil' bit of prawns and of course the must-have calamari for appetizers to go with overflowing tequila shots and i lost count of how many pitchers of mojitos we had...smoked for the first time - not cig's but some peppermint-flavored sheesha/hookah...got some steaks for dinner few hours after...

***blow it or suck it --- either way i'm not complaining :) loveeee it...i'm so lovin' my life right now :)

for the second time - got one of the best view to watch the spectacular fireworks display that lasted for more than 15 minutes (we we're shouting like crazy kids when it started - and ow i forgot to take pictures of it -- was too caught up in the moment).. then finish the night off with coffee from Starbucks (with crazy dancing in between)...
