A Pity you get to stay 'only' 1 month
We can't find it our hearts to feel sorry for you, much as we love you, Donna and Rick

Fun
The carnival looks like a lot more fun than the hockey game.

Love your blogs....
Looks like a great place. I see a fan in the house. Air-conditioning? I could live with a maid four days a week!! Just gorgeous colors, Judy. We have spent several years meeting our kids Mike and Von and Marcie and Ben (and year before last Steve and Sherry, as well) in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Always lovely and fun. This past year we went to the Dominican Republic instead. Always such fascinating experiences. Looks like you are in for a great time.

Great photos!
Hi Judy ~~ the photos are wonderful and it helps me visualize what it's like. Roger gave me a skype tour once but we didn't get very far as it was mostly at his home there. I talked to Kendra and she said you're going to skype with her today, her birthday. That's great! I'm glad you're with Roger and I'm sure he's really enjoying the visit. Love your blog, keep 'em coming! love, Nancy

Nice!
Looks like a great place. Wish we could have joined you. Thanks again for the invitation. We were snowed in last week, but made it down to Richmond for a long weekend to babysit Isaac and Selah and attend the movie "Frozen" (the sing-a-long version) with them. We won't make it to Mexico, but at least we have plans to go visit our Florida family and some old NPS friends down there in early April. We've got Harry settled into his new "home" in Richmond and have been spending a lot of time down there. But we're feeling a little better about doing a some traveling now that we're sure he is well cared for. Have a great time. We will be with you vicariously, if not in person.

Your Trip
Hey Judy, Thanks for taking me along on your trip. I leaned a lot and really enjoyed it!

We found Quebecers really hate English and had bad experiences there
When we were in Québec city recently we found that a lot of french refuse to speak English. We know some French and spole to them in French and they pretended not to understand. They play a lot of head games which a form of abuse. We found them to be extremely abusive people and the province seems on the verge of civil war. We believe there a group of French who are targetting the English tourist areas in Québec city. On rue St Jean some demented guy had a bunch of wasps in a jar and when we walked by he opened the jar and of course, the wasps were very aggressive and stung one of us. The guy looked at us and said it was the wasp's way of giving a Quebecois greeting to the English. Another experience we had was when we went for lunch at a hamburger place on rue St Jean and when we opened a bottle of ketchup the ketchup exploded all over us. It sounds like they have a lot of deranged characters walking the Streets there and we advise not going there. It sounds like the use the political situation as an excuse to go around verbally and physically attacking English people.

Home is Welcome
Judy and Joe, Thank you for taking us on a travelog trip with you. Your home isn't humble and I bet it still feels like 'there's no place like home'. Love, Donna and Rick

Home Sweet Home
Congrats, Judy and Joe and what endurance you two have. Thanks so much for the wonderful trip, commentary and pics. I am exhausted from your trip!! Don't know where you get the energy but admire you for going the distance and seeing it all. That car must be worn out!!! See you soon after a well deserved rest. J&D

What a trip!
Well, we have enjoyed following your travels very much. Not as good as being there, but what a fabulous trip! Sorry the last day was a little flat, but it was bound to be after the adventures you had. We hope the next big jaunt might be to head over here.....

Stones
I like how they include the cod piece in the Stone's outfits.
