Estoy como feliz que un payaso y como generoso como un marinero borracho,

Porque me casé hoy.

I'm as happy as a clown and as generous as a drunken sailor ,

Because I got married today.

Sólo bromeando mis amigos , estoy todavía buscando, Y bebiendo.

As evening shadows fall, the young lovers make their way through the tropical gardens to

the reggae shack on the hill.

Mientras las sombras de la noche caigan, los jóvenes enamorados hacen su camino por

los jardines tropicales a la choza reggae en la colina.

Hi Naya, Ni Pam! The photo is of a little club on Caye Caulker, Belize. I'm well, but cold. I was invited to go dune walking today and it was very windy and cold. I ate more sand than I did lunch! lol - 0095ca4c, Nov 14, 2013
