Lucky for me, Dan's brother, Eduardo extended an invite to his son, Martin's
wedding when he visited this winter. How kind. How thoughtful and Who knew
that I would be able to attend??? Well, let me tell you, sometimes the God's
shine upon you, the stars align and the kids all got together to make it happen!!!
I thank them immensely, Lisa came to stay with Dad, Jen provided
long distance support from Utah and Dan played Tour Guide and I had a
wonderful and memorable time AND I can't wait to return!!!
Please find some trip highlights of the Wedding and Dan's family.
They are an incredibly warm, welcoming and wonderful family as showcased in the photos.
Martin (the groom) is a world famous Master Harmonica maker. He plays a "mean" harmonica
and we were treated to a performance of his band the next night at a restaurant/bar that
featured several bands all taking turns rocking out. He has a HUGE following and a dream
to play Jazz in Chicago. I think he will make it!!! He is that good!!! And a Very Nice
young man as well. He and wife, Alejandra, a psychologist, should have a wonderful life
together.
The wedding began at 9:30PM!!!! on a Saturday night at the Catholic Church in San Juan
and we left at 5:30AM!!! even though the party was still going on. There were prizes and
surprises almost every hour. EVERYONE DANCED!!! The food appeared in waves from
the drinks and hors d'oeuvres served outside while waiting for the civil ceremony and then
the wedding dinner, The SWEETS Table was unveiled about 1 or 2 or 3 O'Clock but who
was paying attention to time!!! We were too busy having fun! The Party Hats and toys
were rolled out around 2 so that everyone could make their selection. Then around 4:30AM
there was a leg of pork so that we could enjoy a little sandwich before the trip home.
Relatives and friends came from as far south as Tierra Del Fuego, friends of the bride
Alejandra, and to the east Cordoba and the north, Salta near Iguassu Falls.
Apologies that photos are a little out of order but the computer is putting up a little resistance.
