Well we had some success last night. Daniel only woke up twice. Yippee!!!!!!!!! The staff at Las Palmas is so nice. We were talking about Daniel's sleeping issues. They recommended a home remedy of Apple water. Apparently they use apple water to help people sleep. So we tried it. It seems to work. This might be his nightly drink.
We found another park. Seriously you can find a park on every corner. Daniel played and spotted birds. When he sees a dog he will say "WowWow" for the bark. That is very Colombian. Too cute.
We also decided to shorten Daniel's nap. He was not happy.Boy does he have a huge lip pout. He just wanted to sleep. Gary & I actually couldn't help but find it funny . We are such Meany Parents. We won and Daniel reluctantly woke up. We walked 20 minutes to the mall. What an adventure. The traffic is crazy. Close to the mall it was like playing chicken with cabs,buses and cars. We made it without any problems. After killing some timeat the mall, we headed back via cab because it was starting to drizzle.
Tonight Daniel had another round of the apple drink before bed. He went to sleep in 10 minutes. This is huge!! We will see what the night brings. Tomorrow , the hotel's General Manager Juan Carlos is taking us to the Country Club. We hope the weather permits. When Juan Carlos first mentioned "going to the club" I thought he was talking about a Club as in Nightclub. I was thinking how can we take a toddler to the club. Do they do that in Colombia. Then my brief moment of craziness and sleep deprivation went away and I was on the same page as everyone else.

Leslie I am so happy for you. I love reading your posts and from the pictures he looks like a very happy boy. You are so blessed. Can't wait to see him in person. By the way do you not know by now that it is not nice to wake sleeping babies? Hope to read more soon.
