Jonathan & Kendrianne and Kathy & Iain arrived March 4th for a fun and sun filled week - La Paz Carnival, Day trip to the islands on Mike's boat, lots of great food and, of course, the mandatory sunset margaritas. Loved having them all here at the same time.
We are re-grouping this week and getting excited for Dina and Simon to arrive Wednesday. We will be whisking them away (literally off the side of the highway!) overnight to La Ventana to go to Willie & Carol's fund raising party with a great live band from LA! Brian & Cheryl Cowan (Phil’s parents) arrive the following week.
Paul has played a lot of music this month, last night it was a set at the La Paz Blues Festival.
As always, the photos tell the story…
