More fun

As you can see, we are basking in the sun. The picture at the fountain was taken by a Tule tree. The legend says that when Jesus came here he blessed the tree to still be here when he returned. It was a pretty little area.

Doug, I thought you might enjoy seeing dad with his $5 shoes and his SOCKS standing in the ocean. It is so dad. He thought it was funny too. That photo was taken at Huatulco Bay on the Pacific Ocean. It was a fabulous day. We spent the entire day cruising around on a catamaran and stopping at little lagoons. It must have been 85 degrees out.

There is so much to tell, I don´t even know where to start, so I just pick out a couple of things. One thing for sure, I hate Topes. You can ask Heather what that means. There are no road signs to tell you what speed to drive, or any kind of regulatory signs, that just put in a tope wherever they feel like it. It is quite a nuisance. Also, if Oscar, our bus driver feels he needs to relieve himself, he just stops the bus in the middle of the road and does his business. In case you didn´t know, there is a potty on the bus.

We have had huge days, always busy. This morning we had our wake up call at 4:30 am. We only got back to the hotel at 8:00 pm. We did several things. We took a 16 mile boat ride down the Unamicinta River, proposed sight of the River Sidon. When we got there we climbed a hill and saw some spectacular ruins. We could hear howler monkeys but couldn´t see them. They were so loud. We did see some Toucans, and I was thrilled about that.

Dad and I have both suffered for a couple of days with bathroom business. But on top of that I got dehydrated and had motion sickness too. All better now. Dad is still struggling. But we´ll make it. Only 5 more nights. I think we will definetly be ready to come home.

Do you still have lots of snow. maybe you could get rid of it before we show up.

Rocio, I have so much to tell you I can hardly wait.

Family, check up on each other please and we will see you soon.
