The Limons

---

We finally arrived after what seemed a mammoth journey and we´ve had a fantastic couple of days with the Limons (Sam´s old host family) in Cuernavaca. Jings, what an impression you have made on this family Sam, not an hour goes past without a sudden "I LOVE SAM!!!" being yelled from somewhere. Mum, you could not have chosen a better present than the pot purri - apparently Eric had tried to smuggle some gum nuts back the last time but he was stopped and it was his biggest regret. After giving them all the presents, and reading the note, Eric had tears in his eyes. It was muy especial. Eric wanted to keep Sam´s translation of our speech, it sits, pride of place in the lounge. And what a lounge it is. Never have i seen such a shrine to Australia....

Yesterday Fernando and his girlfriend (she is lovely) took us to the pyramid on top of the mountain (the name escapes me - but Sam, i think your description of a "hill" was a little understated!!) which was amazing and then took us for dinner at a grand building which used to be Montezuma´s home. There we met Eric´s brother and his family - Eric´s brother also has fond memories of Sam who said that he was such a good beer drinker. "WE LOVE SAM" was said during this dinner.

Today Fernando and Eric took us to Taxco which was beautiful! Fernando came with us around all the silber shops and then we met Eric who had been propping up the bar all day.

Off to Mexico City tomorrow, where we will stay in Centro Historico for a couple of days and then go and stay with Erica in her flat. Its great fun, we´re loving it.
