Mexico Agrees with Me!

Hard to believe I’ve been here three weeks and either I am getting more lazy or the sun gets to my head and my body is weary at night! Just a few quick notes.  Puerta Vallarta brought a week at the lovely time share, logistics and getting settled took too much time, sunsets were great, the walk to a little town north always brought me joy and a special day and night in a mountain village with a good room for only about $15 U. S. dollars a night-how unusual!

Too bad there aren’t more repeats. South on a bus ride to my old stomping grounds of Barra de Navidad , watching the weigh-in of   a sailfish at 116 pounds at a fun-filled tournament.  Then a bus ride for 20 minutes and stayed four days at the seaside accommodation  at Melaque–the only beach where the surf doesn’t put me in a total twister!

Flew out from Manzanillo to Oaxaca via Mexico City-divine leg room, stewardesses in red and blue, colorful scarves in a brand new plane.  Now in Oaxaca for some time, enjoying other adventures I didn’t get around to last time.  Another mountain (hills!) town where pines and a nice breeze  alleviate the pain of traveling in a “collectivo” to save money! (six including driver  in a small compact!) Military Processions one day and today Flag Day–plus 5 policemen on every corner I swear! ( for what I don’t know!) I am more than protected.

Before I know it I’ll fly to Leon, bus to San Miguel Allende and finally catch up with my friend Mary.  It will be good to not always be charging around on my own, though I do perfectly fine, thank you.

A BIG P.S.–Keep previewing this crazy thing and it’s been too long since I’ve known how to add/and/or delete photos, so you either have too many(!)-one, or in this case some missing  too.  I give up for tonight!!
