On the road again

"On the road again" photo is so nice. Should be labelled "Love birds in Paradise" ;-)
Nice blogs Sally. I feel like we are travelling along with you. You said in your reply that you got my first comment to one of your first blogs (1 or 2), In it I mentioned that Diego had graduated, etc also... The system was working funny that day, but after a second try, it did say that it was sent. I do not see it anywhere...i wonder what happened to it... Anyway Love the one blog on parenting: I could feel the 'I miss you too kids' in between the lines. It will be fun when you gather all together again. happy sun, happy heat, happy Margaritas..happy Fifa ( I was sad for Mexico losing. Allegedly, Diego tells me that they have been disqualified 20 years in a row). I will check those stats, not that it matters, as Mexico played like champions. I wonder how it was IN Mexico when FIFA 2014 game of Mexico vs the Netherlands, was on yesterday???...You are so blessed to be there now. Enjoy it. Besos y abrazos mis amigos.

Livin' the life!
Isn't it Isla marvelous....not near as commercialized as Playa. Would love to go back someday, nice to see what you found for accommodations. Gives me ideas!

There are lots of private villas (they are beautiful custom made homes). It is THE way to travel...!

Yes Zully I got it!! Love to hear from you! Everything is beyond our expectations and we are unwinding! It is a beautiful quiet fun island with lots of charm. Love the island folks too. So warm and welcoming!

Hola!
Hey Sally! Sounds like you guys are having a great time! We've been to the little bar you're talking about- beer so cold it hurts you're teeth! We went there when we visited Isla Mujeres. So beautiful! Have an awesome time!

Hola!
It's a fun spot Christine...did you get to Punta Sur and the seafood restaurant on a cliff? It is amazing; we are going back for a lunch today. Life is just so hard here :) Thanks for the reply!

Hi Sal and Al. Awesome pictures. I love your blogs Sal. You have become really good a photo presentation. I could not avoid to notice all the commercials at the top of each photo, thinking you had written those also. Then I quickly caught on , ignored those 100 % and focused on your blog. Your words 'dizzily surreal' best describe your experience. You are blessed to have family and friends to help you accomplish this leg of the trip alone >> hence Happy honeymoon. Life should be made of many "mini and big moons". This is a biggie. You work hard for what you do, so you deserve a good break. I love the part where "Al' says you look more gorgeous than back then. I am sure he means it, and that it is not the "cerveza' talking. I got a gulp at the words "turquoise ocean". How nice to enjoy such God created beauty. Yes the smell of the ocean is a fave one of mine. Nothing like that other than baby fresh after bath. ;-) Have fun my friends. Hope your 'Villa" adventures are great. You are like love birds now...enjoy the peace and quiet...and soon your family will join in. Diego graduated back home also and was in the Principal's Honor roll. I was panicked when I did not see his name called..only because they saved the best for the end. :-) .It was funny to see me run up to the Marshalling Teacher to ask him if they forgot my son!!! So yes Congrats on Rory making Honors Roll. ..and congrats to all: Lara, Rory and Eva on the end of the school year and upcoming Summer fun. Enjoy my friends. Love and smiles, Zully xoxo

Helllooooo
Sooo good to hear of your honeymoon! I miss you dear friend. Life has been crazy this past year since Pat's dad's passing, and our weekends have not been our own since. The upside is his mom has made it through the storm (they were married 50yrs)! I'm working 3-11 temporarily until we get a new hire, and have Sunday and Mondays off. And now I'm told I have to have knee surgery! Lord love a duck my mom used to say! Misssss youuuuuuu!

Hola!
Well with a push of a button I finally bit the bullet & Cancun HERE WE COME! :) July 14-24 staying at The Ritz Carleton. (hope it's a good one?...) The fact that it has "Ritz" in the name sounds good to me!! Maybe we will see you guys? :) Have fun!!! Enjoy the Honeymoon! ;) Celine

The most wonderful vacation place in the world!!!!
Thank you Sally, Al, Rory and Ava, It was a wonderful vacation and it couldn't have been any better. What was great about it was being with my family and especially with Rory and Ava. They treat me like I am special and a Queen. Many great memories to take me into spring. I love you more that words can say. XOXOXOXOXO

Good to hear you made it back safe and sound. Bravo for you speaking out to the rude custom's agent. Those agents are so rude and try to intimidate the public and are on power trips. I am so glad you brought her down a notch or two and brought public attention to her behaviour!!!! More people to need speak out and I have before in the past just like you, there is no need for their rudness. Also bravo to you for defending Mexico, I feel like I have to do that all the time when people question "why" I travel to Mexico with all the danger, crime, drugs, etc......I don't bother justifying it anymore, we are better off down here vacationing without those small minded people anyway!! Glad to hear your Dad is back home and your parents are reunited. Enjoyed reading your blogs, meeting you and btw....muchas gracias por the cervaza!!! Just so you aren't feeling so bad about leaving the beautiful weather, it changed the day you left, very cool, no sun and a little rain, today was the same and forecast is for no sun or heat for another 2 days at least, so take some comfort knowing that you had glorious weather while you were here. Until we meet again, Adios

Hi Sally, just me again, if it's not possible we get together later maybe you could give me some info on condos for rent for next winter. I have two other couples and ourselves that are interested in Dec./Jan/Feb rental. Can you help? Thanks, Debbie
21st January 2014

Hi Sally, if there is a chance you still want to get together today or tomorrow, call my cell 984 166 4399 I might not get your email message before I go out this morning to run a few errands. Talk to you soon. Debbie

Wishing I was in Mexico with you today. Darn it's cold. Thanks for the phone call, we are off to Toronto in a few minutes. Give your Mom a hug from me. Enjoy your last few days. Sending lots of love. xo

Hola Sally, OMG!!!! So sorry to hear the news about your Dad. I know he is in good hands as you mentioned in your email but I know the feeling of helplessness and wanting to be with him now and you are so far away. I was really looking forward to meeting up with you tomorrow but given your circumstances I understand and perhaps we will be able to do it another time. Let me know and I am just so thankful he will be alright and is in safe hands until you arrive back home. Take care, Debbie

Dad
Thanks Debbie, we are fortunate to have fantastic family members in the medical field who jumped right in. I'll be in touch Debbie for sure today!
