Yesterday it was Elephants

We've been doing a whole lot of nothing so far on vacation & that's exactly what we need!  I've finished 2 books already!  Having dinner with our student, Gaby & her family tonight so I should have lots more photos to share.  Hope I remember some food photos --have had some great meals, but forget to snap pictures until it's too late.

Arrival in Isla

Feeling pretty relaxed--haven't done much except visiting with friends & eat.  but that's been fun!.  I probably won't do many posts before we get home---it will be easier to organize my thoughts then.  I didn't get a photo of this towel sculpture before Alan took a hand towel!

When you read this we will be winging our way to Isla Mujeres...will be seeing this beautiful site in a few short hours! In this photo you can almost see where we stay--see the green area on the left side of the picture..our place is right next to that! Ahhhhh.....

A Highlight of Our Trip

will be getting to spend some time with Gaby, the student we sponsor through the Isla Scholarship program.  We had thought she might come home for a weekend, but found out this week she is home for break from college all week.  This picture was taken in 2009 when we had recently begun sponsoring her.  She is now in her second year of college and doing well.  Alan & I and the rest of her "team"  are very proud madrina & padrinos!

Two days... to the Airport Tomorrow!

The 1st stop on the island will be at the bar at the ferry dock where a few friends should be waiting for us!  Then off to our room & unpacking....then  just relaxing for a few weeks!

Countdown....3 more days

The waves again at Punta Sur. No one has posted a comment on my blog in almost a week! Yikes!
