other creatures of the night

As expected, Holiday Hotel's
annual Halloween/Masquerade Party was a hit! This much needed, stress-relieving
event gave many residents of San Pedro the opportunity to socialize once again
with friends and acquaintances. Many die-hard party-goers found time to create
costumes and in return won one of many fabulous prizes. Others, more discreetly
dressed, just wanted to be where the fun was. Joining the locals at the Holiday
was a group of over twenty tourists dressed in Halloween attire, adding more
color to the festive evening. Live music by Wil and the Caribbean Shells and
elaborate party decorations set the mood for those who went to enjoy the "Party
- After the Storm."
The Masquerade Party served its purpose
and after some aspirin the following
morning, many more happy faces have now sprung up in San Pedro.
