the routine.

The blog has been a little lackluster lately.
I'm aware.

We are deep in heart of our Cartagena routine, keeping a pretty consistent schedule each day of the week. In the two years that we've resided here, a lot of things have changed. Plenty of people have come and gone, which affected our social calendar and we feel like we've seen a lot of what Cartagena has to offer {or at least what we're allowed to see}.
We're in a bit of a rut, looking forward to traveling and getting a bit of Americana to brighten our spirits.

This is a little of what our current routine looks like:

{we've been doing a lot of this lately. We watched Argo last weekend and the scenes where they had to go through customs had me screaming with anxiety. It made me thankful that I reside in a country that is on good terms with the US.}

Sunday
Here's where we shake things up.
Sometimes we wake up early, head to the gym, get brunch, and then go the grocery store.
Other times we lounge in bed, read the newspaper, watch tv and eat breakfast in bed. Then we head to the gym and the grocery store.
Then in the afternoon we may run errands, grab a bit to eat, or watch a movie.

Proceed to Monday.
It's kind of like our own little Groundhog Day. But we get to watch the date on the calendar change.

So I apologize for being a little boring on the blog lately. I will try and share more of the daily happenings that is our Colombian Adventure at this moment.
{I guess the 366 photo challenge helped with that}.
But trust me, soon enough the blog will be back in action with travel, reunions, dogs, and plenty of other adventures to share.
