What crappy bloggers we are! It’s been 3 weeks since our last blog.
We have had more visitors in recent weeks - Kathy and Erica Scott for a week, and now Helga for a week. We are so pleased that our friends and family want to visit - we really mean it when we say “Nuestra Casa es tu Casa”.
We had lots of fun with Kathy and Erica - it was their first visit to La Paz so we tried to show them as much as we could - the beach, the boat to Espiritos Santos to swim with the Sea Lions and the Whale Sharks, great fish tacos, pool time, Margaritas, Pizza Party, Exploding Kittens (card game - you know who you are if you have been here and become addicted) and surfing at Los Cerritos….Phew - lots of fun.
Last night we had our first big party (“fiesta”) here at the house for the Tennis group. All 22 here were Mexicanos… we have learned that their focus is all about “Eat, Drink, and be Merry…. sing loudly but badly and not care….The teens were in the pool, the men close to the fire (is this a Caveman thing?) and the women chatting, laughing….. A late night, but so fun to host for our friends.
With 3 weeks left until we fly back to Vancouver for the summer , we have booked a short vacation this week. We take the Baja Ferry overnight Thursday to Mazatlan for 3 days, then drive to Guadalajara (5 hours) for 4 days. We will be with our Mexican friends Raul and Georgina - how awesome to have our own drivers, guides and translators!
