Elianas oldest sister took Eliana and I to a place to order our wedding cake. I thought we would be going to a bakery, and so I was surprised when we were knocking on the front door of a home. The home is a grandmothers home (not elianas) who makes cakes for a living. And I know she makes a lot of cakes, because she had a planner that looked full. She had a stack of magazines, and had us look through them, and I think she could make about any cake we wanted. So we got our cake picked out, and she will be making it for us. After the honeymoon, we will be posting pictures. And if my mom wants, she can send out pictures to everyone before that, since she will also be taking pictures with her camera.
Eliana and I both say that we are glad that we have only one wedding. November 10 will be a special day, and I think we will have a lot of fun, but the preparations are so much work. I think preparing for a wedding is about the same here as in the United States. Although Eliana just told me that tomorrow we need to go see about having some security at our reception. If you ever visit Peru, you will see bars on windows and doors, and also there is police and security everywhere. I am glad that we will have security there. Eliana said they do it free of charge. I think that the local municipality provides security free of charge for like receptions, and other events.
Changing of subject, Eliana and I cut up some potatoes and made some french fries. I was able to buy a little container of ketchup too. And so for supper we had some steak, french fries, rice, a vegetable that I don´t know the name of, and coffee. There are a lot of fruits and vegetables here that I had never seen before. They have corn that is black, and they boil it, and then add sugar, and it makes a good drink. My dad also drank that while he was here, and was surprised by how it was made. Everyday about 1/2 mile from the house, there is a market in the street, and people selling all sorts of food, and other stuff. It is neat to see.
Well its time to get some sleep. Good night!

I always said that it felt like the wedding was for everyone else and the honeymoon was for us. I have a vague recollection of Mom putting a trash bag over my head while we tried to get through a Kansas windstorm without messing up my hair....yah, right. The day can be a bit stressful, I will warn you.
