truly thankful hi,
it's really good of you to have shared those exciting moments that you experienced,and above all neatly capturing it in photographic splendor...
thanks
Mom... Usuallly we dive with a dive watch and functioning depth gauge, but the outfit we went with had neither one! Bad idea and poor planning on my part to dive under those circumstances. Learned my lesson, I guess!
Sorry you wont be in AK So glad you are reading the blog! We had such a hard time getting away from Tulum, and from that blue water, but it is not going anywhere anytime soon, eh? Congrats on the grandbaby!
Yikes! Julie, girl, how did you get too deep and not know it? I'm glad you got back on the horse. Still doing primitive honeymooning? Lots of love, Mom.
thank u for sharing ur Mexico adventures i was in mexico for the 1st time ever this past august. loved it so much. my husband and I went swimming in to cenotes..WE LOVED it!! what a wonderful experience it was to have. If I could olny get the courage to go diving, I'm sure the Cenotes are just as beautiful below surface ENJOY ur trip
Tulum Loved re-living Tulum through your eyes! We love it there - and happy to hear that it is not "going Cancun" or some of the bloated up resort areas in that area. No electric - concrete platforms with mattresses - thatched hut == but that glorious water only feet away. Will long be one of our cherished spots. Couldn't get the courage you have to even swim in a cenote much less dive in it! Good for you!! Enjoy - by the way we will be in Door County, WI instead of Alaska this year. That grandbaby will be our one and only star attraction this year!! xox
Love it! So good to hear of your newest adventures...the cavern diving sounds rather spooky to me. Good to know you are both doing well and having a great time. Love you!
Cave diving? I cannot think of anything more terrifying than diving in a cave. Except maybe diving in a cave with some sort of aquatic spiders. At night.
Thanks for keeping in touch Hello, you two! Thank you so much for starting up your blog. I love hearing about white beaches and bright water as I put on my gear to shovel snow. Love you both-be careful. Janette T.
I'm so sorry Alex, I'm so sorry about Romeo. I'm sorry I didn't notice your post earlier. The thing about dogs, weiner dogs in particular, is that they are always the most popular member of the family. Everyone likes the dog best.
questions Your hair is sooo long! Are you dying your roots brown again? Does that question enrage you like it once did in 9th grade? Will you make me soup-filled pastries when you come home? Can we change the recipe to make cheeseburger-filled pastries?
In all fairness.... This was the 6th time, maybe 7th time I've had to take you to a hospital in Asia, and I was getting DAMNED sick and tired of people gathering in crowds to stare you down while you are in pain. It just pisses me off. I mean, you had blood pouring down your leg and then here's this dude just STARING at you...no lab coat, no nothing.... I was seconds away from shoo-ing him away from the room when you gave me the heads up.
I'm just trying to protect you!
Les Toilettes I still don't get the whole toilet in the floor thing. I mean, I understand the idea, but how does it work? What if my thighs were really tired? I wouldn't be able to hold myself up long enough to poo. Actually, I would just get a bunch of seat liners and put them around the hole and sit on it.
Also...I am terribly disappointed that the answers to "name the items" a few blogs back were never revealed....
A. Deodorant and a foot-scrub exfoliant, B. White-out and bleach, C. A bottle of "Outstanding" and deodorant (again?), D. Red vines in a pink container (tricky!), E. Bacon, F. A robot that cleans showers.
Product quiz A. Deodorant or shaving cream on the left. Shampoo or conditioner.
B. Bleach in larger container. Perhaps fabric softener on left.
C. Safeguard indicates bath soap. Another hair product on the left?
D. Microwaveable food product??
E. None too appetizing. Looks like fake dog barf.
F. What is this contraption, some kind of torture machine??
Taking off for the car show.
Love you both!
Answers A. Underarm deodorant and Bawang, which must be a secret herb for Alex to take so that his Kung Fu doesn't suck
B. Vitamins and laundry soap
C. Bath gel and lotion with aloe vera
D. Popcorn
E. 'Health and Delicious' brand thin=sliced monkey brain deli meat
F. A giant Chinese enema machine
Wow.. Looks and sounds like you guys are having a great time even with the crazy adjustments. Kudos to going out there and exploring new cultures! Glad I finally got around to checking out the journal :) Keep up the posting, I'm going to live vicariously through you guys!
Texas misses you! (It just snowed 6 inches in Denton 0_0)
Whatever. "Conditioner" makes no sense! Are you "conditioning" your hair? Getting it ready for a marathon? NO! Are you putting a creamy rinse on your hair? YES! Thus, cream rinse.
I still have no idea why YOUR weirdo family calls it "Cream Rinse" when the rest of the world calls it conditioner! It's like calling shampoo "Clear Wash"!
Makes me think of a certain someone's favorite color: Clear!
