Colombia doesn't want to let us go

Bright and early I woke up because I heard my Nina and Kennedi rustling to get packed to leave so I stuck my finger in my daddy's nose.  We saw them off at 6am for their 8:30 flight to Cartagena then on the Orlando.  I couldn't go back to sleep because there was stuff to mess up so I started pulling all the toilet paper off the roll, dragging my daddy's toothbrush around on the ground, biting chairs, and eating things I found under the couch cushions.  Then mama got a text from Melisa that their flight was canceled!! Team Mama and Daddy went into action mode; searching flights scenarios that would get Nina and Kennedi home. I tried to help by making weird noises and pushing buttons on the iPad while they were working, it really seemed to be helping.  Finally we got the good news that they found a flight and were headed home. We were sad...
Then we decided to go walk into town but once again no one asked me. If they would have, I would have said 'lets go to boob town.' But no one listens to me cause I'm just a baby.  We stopped in a park and brother and I see-sawed with Mama while daddy watched kids play soccer longingly.  We ate yummy pastries at a cafe and walked into town to the Emerald Museum. I decided to try to break as many fragile crystals off the rock displays as possible.  Then mama wanted to look at boring shopping stuff so I ran around some stores taking anything in sight off of shelves and gently strewing it on the floor.  All that shopping worked up an appetite so we found a cool grotto bar and had ceviche and potatoes in parmesan cream sauce and brother had chicken wings. We were moving Airbnb apartments so we headed back down the hill to the major boulevard.  Daddy wanted to show us the plaza de Bolivar, the central square that houses the Supreme Court and congress.  Unfortunately it was cordoned off bc of a rally.  Daddy asked what was the rally about and was told that the leftist guerilla movement called the FARC had signed a historic agreement to lay down their arms and become and political party. And we were told that tomorrow is Colombian Independence Day!!
We got a taxi and headed back to the new Airbnb for the tonight. I'm tired cause I'm a baby and I want to go to sleep. Night night.
