esteban’s parents came to colombia for a short visit. we had not seen them since november 2009 in argentina. we were very happy to see them again and the timing could not have been better. just last week the city hosted the summit of the americas attended by most presidents of the continent. the city officials did their best to clean and beautify the place for the VIPs. as a result, barco and sonia enjoyed a very clean city, with everything painted, flowers blooming, hardly any unpaved spots on the roads and just about everything neat and proper. it was great timing. the boat was also perfect. just before they arrived esteban put it back in the water after painting the bottom, so both city and boat were on their very sunday best!! and to put the finishing touch… they brought with them a new stock or argentinean flags for the boat. very timely; to replace the ragged and discolored ones on board. It was all too pretty! they sailed around the bay and went sightseeing around the city. they stayed on board and enjoyed the boat, albeit the heat. it was a lovely week.
