Hello, Silver Bloggers community.
Greetings and good vibes to all. Today, I want to share with you one of the most pleasant experiences I have had in my life. It was precisely the 15th birthday of my eldest daughter.
It all started a few years before this date when her mom and I began to gather all the money needed for this long-awaited day. We had no idea how we were going to achieve it, but what I was sure of was that we were going to achieve it.
My little girl wanted to take some studio pictures and spend a few days in a hotel on the well-known beach ¨Varadero¨, well in a while we already had all the money for the pictures but we were missing the hotel; suddenly less than 2 months before we had to make the hotel reservation (because it must be done well in advance) in my country they make a radical economic and currency change and the money we had was not enough, I imagine that I do not have to tell you the anxiety and anguish that was generated with this situation, But we tightened our belts and worked much harder, when we arrived that day at the reservation office, it turned out that in that week the hotel prices had risen by 20% jejej desperate but well then I had no choice but to ask the girl's godfather for help (which I do not like to do) and thanks to that we were able to achieve the long-awaited reservation.
Well, we managed to take the studio and beautiful outdoor photos, and the work done by the photographer was of excellent quality, and then came the long-awaited weekend where the birthday of my eldest princess would be in between, Friday morning we left for Varadero and arrived at about 11:00 am, on our way to the hotel we were informed that the entrance was at 2:00 pm and that if we wanted to walk around the area for a while so we could get to know the place and that's exactly what we did.
As we started walking we discovered the “Casa del Ron” and “Casa del Tabaco” but the one we liked the most in the boulevard of Varadero was “Casa del Chocolate” for obvious reasons, leaving the Casa del Chocolate we got on local transport and also visited the amusement park of the place where what caught our attention was the 3D games area where my two daughters and my wife rode on a machine that simulated a roller coaster, I tried but my vertigo (and I think my age) prevented me, really impressed me.
Well back to the hotel ¨Barceló Arenas Blancas¨, we could already take the rooms and we were told that as the girl had her birthday the next day we had a free meal at a restaurant in the resort, all this and the excellent attention of absolutely all the staff of the center had us super happy and satisfied to have made that choice, the whole stay in the place was spectacular but the most notorious was the day of the birthday when after finishing eating and while we were waiting for dessert the workers of the place hired a local musical group to sing live congratulations to my daughter, that face of joy of my daughter with that surprise I will have it engraved in my mind for life, at that moment I asked the boys of the musical group, They gladly agreed and sang together the well known ¨Guantanamera¨, well I have no way to describe what a wonderful time we had that day, here I will be leaving you in pictures some of those moments that have been some of the most memorable after my 40 years, I tell you that the beach was also spectacular but my youngest daughter always preferred the pool, in short, that goal achieved at this stage of my life has undoubtedly been something that will mark our lives forever, not only for the effort made but because the achievement of a dream of our children is undoubtedly one of the greatest victories that a parent can get in life.
Without further ado, friends, I hope you liked my publication and that you commented to me about similar experiences.
Thanks for reading.

Love the shots at the bridge (or railway?), looks vintage. You and your wife really prepared a lot for her special day. That part when the musical group sang the song was memorable for you and everyone in the family. I hear that song played here too.
Hi @bettsmarie09, it really was memorable and a fond memory to treasure in my heart for life, yes the photos were on a railroad, and the song of the guantanamera I uploaded it some time ago in a post, thanks for taking the time to answer me.
