    Crazy

    I am told the first election results will be available at 8:00 p.m. Already in Jamao the horns honking and sounds of motores racing is crazy. People truly get excited about this. Is this just Jamao or is it happening elsewhere?

    We are closed tomorrow. We stayed open on Friday, but typically Jamao is rambunctious the day after elections. If there is much street activity the parents will not send their preschool children. Thus we chose to use good judgement and closed.
