Hola
amigos!!
915pm
and we are chilling while watching a DVD.
Max
did not handle the time change as well as we had hoped. Maybe because it was
bright as day in his room when we tried to get him to sleep?
But
he was asleep at 8pm…which would have been perfect if it was ayer…and 7pm!! Ja
ja ja We will see how mañana goes….fingers crossed.
920pm
update…the lil’hombre has Houdini’d himself and has one arm out of the
sling…and is staring into the camera with both ojos open. Doph. Madre has gone
in to fix him up and replace the soother. Fun times mis amigos!!
The
morning rutina has become just that, the rutina. Bex had him first and when I
got up…hello to a walk around centro. And being primero de abril de 2012,
it is Palm Sunday.
From
About.com…
Palm
Sunday, the final Sunday before Easter Sunday, marks the beginning of Holy
Week. Christian churches distribute palms (and sometimes pussy willows) on Palm
Sunday to commemorate Christ's triumphal entrance into Jerusalem, when palm
branches were placed in His path, before His arrest and Crucifixion on Good
Friday.
Here
is the iglesia in Huatulco…class is out!!
We
saw lots of peeps walking out with their palm branches.
It
is also April Fools día and I laughed at THIS WestJet video.
And
at the start of a new month, time to check out the weather stats from marzo.
The lows were 25,9 grados vs
24,0 from marzo 2011, while the highs from this year were only slightly higher
then last years, an average of 33,9 grados vs 33,5.
And what do we have to
look forward to in abril? Last year we had average lows of 26,2 and highs of 35,0….and
then the humido starts!!
Back to the day…
A
hot walk around town and when we got back to the condo Max and I were greeted
by Silverio y familia!! He had told me he would meet us at 10am…I guess he
forgot the time change and thus Max and I left for our walk.
I
passed Max off and came back to take some family fotos for mi amigo. Nice to
meet his familia…it is considered an honor here. I made them all laugh with my
Spanglish and a few chista…jokes.
Based on my experiences in Mexico, here
is a typical family foto…note the smiles.
It
made me laugh so hard. We are all chatting and laughing and as soon as I start
to take a foto, the smiles, the sonrisas, disappear. Ja ja ja
But
after some quick dialogue, I ended up with this foto.
And
here is Silverio’s esposa y 3 month old niña.
Here
are the fotos from the walk around centro.
He is un maestro, a school teacher, at the school across from the papelería. I have seen him no less then 4 times...and every time he has a Coca Cola in his hand!!
Sunday mornings...might not be prime gas appliance selling time?
I liked the colors in this next foto.
A busy morning at this comedor...a comedor economico.
A hard working hombre. In the heat, he is carrying a bag full of ladies sandals...right past the zapatería...shoe store. Doph.
The
rest of the day was tranquilo domingo and that included Nascar, a nap and some
alberca time. Sounds exactly like what Max’s day was like!!
Max
actually had an early swim con madre and then spent 20 minutes plus on the JJ.
The kid was laughing and smiling the whole time and is on his way to setting
the World Record for the highest JJ jump!!
Overall,
a great day that ended with hamburguesa domingo!!
Mañana…a
new week starts and it will be a crowded centro y alberca. Might have to hit
Mojon a few times over the next few weeks.
Hasta
mañana.
Marco,
Bex y Max
