Happy Halloween everybody ... I actually had trick or' treaters' ... 7 boys with Plastic Spider Moustaches !!? which they held onto their face ! There was one small Dracula. I made them all say trick or treat of course, and handed out a few packs of chocolate chip cookies and bag of peanuts. The kids dress up at school too, at least in Kinder. I dressed up once for the Valentine Masquerade Ball, the key piece being a wig, my pink satin lounge wear and basically all my jewelry, with John Lennon glasses. As I walked through town I was getting a lot of attention, and finally one of the woman told me I looked like the Mexican Version of something like our Fairy Godmother ...I forgot the name she said, but maybe Deb can help me find out, and we can find a picture. Danny's party at El Hardin Friday was pretty special, especially since Craig & Danny's Mom went to High School together. There was a Bonfire on the beach and fireworks Saturday Night with more of Danny's friends to Celebrate his life.
I believe the frog is gone for good. We put him in a bucket and took him out to the stream at Playa Isabel. Nothing would surprise me. Wanting to put my curtains up in the Casita, but still overcast and threat of a storm. Huge lightening way out over the bay, towards Punta Mita last night, but couldn't hear the thunder. Two Huge Tuna boats came into the bay, for protection I guess ... Lite up the whole place until they left at 2 am ... lucky for me I sleep like a baby and heard nothing. One of them back this afternoon ?? Lower humidity today but strong wind gusts. Large white clouds in a grey blue sky. The wind is blowing littlepieces of the roof off and they dance all across the floor.
Mimi didn't open Friday. Too much going on already and the weather is not cooperating.
We'll be ready when we're ready, but we are getting very close and very very excited !!
The time changed here last week. I figured it out, like most people, when we saw the taxi at 10:30 instead of 9:30 and the Cascada at 11:00 instead of 10:00 ... days do seem longer, but in bed earlier too. Preparing for Immigration Tuesday. It will take 3 trips in, but come out a Permanent Resident .. incredible . Lots of people with flu and sore throat. The Clinic didn't have the "standard " antibiotics my friend needed for her 10 month old and she had to make a trip to PV. ???? It can't be easy keeping up with the Inventory here. Curious now as to how it all comes together, and we do have an English Speaking Yelapa resident very active in supporting the Clinic. She has a lot of info ! They do have the Scorpion Anti Venom though, as we ( unfortunately ) found out at the Party Friday Night. Heading out the door to go home, Ray was stung on the foot. Spent the night at EH, most of Saturday at the Clinic,
Saturday night at a friends close to the Clinic, and has finally made it home. It all involved
a lot of coordination and chaos. Including boat rides, piggy back rides, and wheelbarrow rides. I've named this weeks blog in his honour ! New Moon today but I think we'll have to wait a little longer to see our star lite sky ... I think I better go batten down the hatches ...
ps Since RR's misadventure or as some say Yelapa Baptism, we didn't watch the Hockey Game, but he saved me some misery as my team lost 4 - 0 !
