We enjoyed the lovely atmosphere, delicious food, and each others company. Last time we ate at Santa Clara, our waiter told us that every evening at 6:30 monks come to light the candles in the dining area. The hotel was originally a convent built in 1621. We've heard it's a neat thing to see and attracts a lot of tourists. Right around 6:30, in the midst of enjoying bread and olive tapenade, we heard bells, followed by the smell of church. Then we saw a line of robed monks entering the restaurant. They stop by each table, light the candle at the table, say a little prayer and move on. It provided a little bit of entertainment to our date night and it's another item we can cross off of our Cartagena checklist.
We spent the rest of the weekend watching movies, running last minute errands, and weighing my suitcase.
I'm under 40 lbs. It took some work & sacrifice, but it's officially crossed off the to-do list.
Speaking of that to-do list, it's far from finished. I have some 'ama de casa' duties that including making some meals to ensure my hard working husband doesn't starve while I am away.
