Step 2: Carry out the activities
Ruth’s routine
When I go to bed, I usually brush my teeth at 8:00 o’clock after dinner, but
sometimes I
forget it and then I must get up in the middle of the night to do so.
Occasionally, when I'm too lazy, I set up an alarm just for that.
On the other hand, there is one thing I'll never be able to do, and it is washing
my face
before bed, because that always wakes me up.
In the morning, I always wake up and immediately take a shower, I usually put
on
shorts and a t-shirt, sometimes I wear a formal dress when I have to go to work.
I often
have eggs for breakfast, but always I must drink a delicious coffee.

Dear Mom.

I am really happy to write to you, last week I was in la Guajira, it is a magical

place. I enjoyed every moment there. On Wednesday, I was landing in
Riohacha’s airport at 1:00 pm, I had lunch there in Riohacha and I spent the
whole day around. At 3:00 pm I was eating friche in the main park, it is
delicious. Then around 3:30 pm I was walking around to know the place and
buying some souvenirs, at almost 7:00 pm that day I was doing the check-in in
the hotel, it is a wonderful hotel, with a swimming pool and excellent service. On
Thursday I was waking up really early, I was very excited because I was going
to travel to Cabo de la Vela, it is around 3 hours from Riohacha by bus. There in
Cabo de la Vela, the landscapes are really beautiful, I stopped for a minute and
I was drinking a delicious juice in a Rancheria in front of the sea. Then I
continued walking and I stopped again in the Arcoiris beach, an amazing place
full of sand colors and very calm. Finally, I went to Ojo del Agua beach, where I
was enjoying of calm and crystal waters to swim, after that, I went to sleep in a
Rancheria, it is a real and a marvelous experience. On Friday the last day of my
traveling, I was visiting El Faro, the most tourist place in Cabo de la Vela and I
was running because I also wanted to visit Punta Gallinas, before coming back
and I did it. There in Punta Gallinas I was visiting The Taroa Dunes where is
amazing to see the sand mountains and at the end of those mountains, there is
the gorgeous sea. On Saturday I was coming back to Cali, were 3 amazing
days full of moments and experiences very hard to forget.

I can’t wait to take you there with me, dear mom.

Hugs.
