Saturday 28th November 2009…where does the time go??

It is now Saturday afternoon around 6pm and I am outside on the patio writing the blog and just wondering where the time goes by.

We seem to have a couple of very lazy days I guess relaxing after the long journey down.

Let me catch you up on the happenings..yesterday morning Sara went to the School where I went last year for my Spanish lessons and where my girls go for their English classes.  She wanted to find out what level she was at and how comfortable she was with the teachers.  It all turned out well and she actually stayed three hours and enjoyed her time there and she is going back all next week for classes.

After lunch we went a different way into town and saw some very colourful and interesting sights.day17 001

Sara had a combo of strawberries and pineapple, me too,  they  were so refreshing and only 1 dollar each!!day17 016

In the evening we took Barb and Frank out for a dinner and had a visit afterwards and I am so happy to tell you they seem to have recovered from their terrible experience and are finally able to relax and enjoy their time here.

Barb and Frank lent us the Mexican train dominoes games to practise as we will be having some games and Sara has not played before……NEED I SAY ANYMORE!!!!!

So if yesterday was a lazy day today was even more so.  The little bakery we have found a few blocks away we were told has fresh cinnamon rolls on Saturday so we walked there at 10am and picked up some treats and came back and sat outside.  The sun was shining and it was warm outside and we decided to have a day of games and wait for it…..ready……yes it happened……normality has returned…a PEARSON VICTORY AT LAST!!!!!!day18 001

We lounged around the rest of the day and I rode Bonita for the first time in Mexico and I was the only person on a scooter with a helmet.

BBQ’d for supper with Sara’s help..day18 002
