Day Nine – Saturday March 10, 2011
June 28, 2011 by meredithwilliams
After a late night of dancing and karaoke, 4 a.m. brought a loud wake-up. While I was blissfully sleeping, a loud “BOOM!” shook me awake. I laid there for a few minutes and was pretty convinced that it had been a gun shot.
“BOOM!”
“BOOM!”
“BOOM!”
I continued to lie there … wondering if anyone else was awake. At this point, I had talked myself out of the gunshot theory. I didn’t hear sirens or screams that would surely have followed all of those gun shots right?
Then … the music and parade started. We later learned it was a week of celebrations in the Copan. Had we stayed longer, we would have been woken up at 4 a.m. every day for a week to a parade and fireworks.
I would take fireworks over gunshots anyday.
And another successful year of Mission Possible comes to a close. Thank you for all of your love and support over the past year!
