MEXICO 2005
How wonderful it is to be home after almost a month! I slept almost all day yesterday after an entirely sleepless plane ride (well, I DID nap for 20 minutes or so a few times after the international flight). As I get used to my Italian keyboard again, I feel the breeze from an unusually cool day (70s!) and the freshness of after-rain that is so unusual here in summer. Yes, it was a little welcome home present about 6:30 this AM, a real thunder and lightening storm. Since my biological clock is so off, I was up and wide awake at 5:30, so I got organized while I drank my coffee and watched the storm and I am ready for the summer season here after less than 24 hours home. I will also be ready for a nap soon!
We are slowly getting back into the social swing too. Paolo came over earlier to invite us to have latte and biscotti instead of coffee (milk and cookies) with he and Ignatzia and Giusy. I think they missed us! He mentioned that he wanted us to get together with his in-laws, Maria and Alfonso, from Staten Island. So well go to the Sciacca market together with them tomorrow. We have seen most of our neighbors and friends by now and yesterday had to turn down dancing to a live band with an 11 PM dinner last night at our complexs cavea (dance floor/recreation area). Thank goodness for earplugs. Tonight is live comedy theater there so we will probably go to that.
I am posting some Mexico pictures so that you can vicariously share the most laid-back vacation trip that we have ever had. I am sure Jr and Jo agree that it was all that we hoped it would be in terms of relaxation. The only real thing we did besides eat, sleep, and swim in various locations was an inspection tour to Tulum to see what damage our other time share sustained in the recent hurricane. What a surprise! We found the place totally in construction mode, with building going on on all three sides . The expansion is a welcome surprise, and we hope to enjoy our two bedroom unit with Jacuzzi on the terrace in January this year. The last 5 pictures are pf the Tulum resort Sunscape.
Cancun was so warm that all we did was slide in and out of the pool all day, and then up to our air conditioned apartment. The scenes you see of activity were enough to put hair on Steves head!
