Emergency Room drop off...?

The So today has been an interesting day. Last week I had the pleasure of officiating a wedding. Today, because I cannot fully read Spanish to know where she had to sign at the wedding, I had to meet with the witness to the wedding to get her signature. This is after finding out that I also need a witness to the witness! Like the witness is not enough. So I had my friend sign it! We met at Krispy Kream because that seems to be the central meeting place here in Dorado. Now, I am at the office of Registeo Demographico to turn in the signed paper work. What is interesting is that the office is inside of the emergency room!! Yup, I have to go the the ER to turn in marriage papers, and of course wait in line, again. Of course there are no exterior signs indicating where to go, so I just walked through every door that was open, waiting in line, untilI I found the right location. Praying I have everything I need!

I think what makes the lines so long here is that no one behind the desk ever seems to have a care in the world. It is their pace and that is it! Right now there is a baby crying as they sit and wait for who knows how long. Hey on the plus side there are gum all machines and fans! Yup no air and it is like 90 degrees in here. There is sweat dripping down my back and I am just standing here. Oh well what do you do but accept it. It is a beautiful day however. 85 degrees and sunny. Can't ask for much more on the 4th of January. I'm used to 15 degrees and cloudy with snow! 

One thing I get used to here is if I get one or two major things done in a day, it is a good day! 

The Caribbean has its own pace and its own time. I just learn to go with the flow.

So now that I got up to the front they are trying to tell me that I need the IDs of the people I married! Really!!! They are back in the states!!!! Finally after some "I don't speak English at all" talk a man helped me who was in line. I had all the right paper work after all! That's how it goes here sometimes!!! Now I'm on my way home!

Well that was Nicely unexpected. The boss of the lady who gave me trouble stopped me in the parking lot. He told me that he was sorry for how I was treated and that she should have never treated me that way! Apparently she has been here since 7am and has a bad attitude today. Lord be with her.

Holy smokes! I literally just watch a man try to run over three Iguana. He sped up and then reversed to try to hit them again!!! I know some people don't like them but I thing they are cool.
