Mmm..cheer..mmm..i..mmm..os!! Cheerio y pasa pit stop!!

Buenos tardes!! Fresh from a familia swim in the CP alberca...time to watch the race, type some notes and figure out who is going to come in and fix the secadora, dryer. Doph!!

It dried one load and as soon as I put in load #2...heat but no tumbling. Pretty sure it is a belt but unless I want to do some online research, I am not in the mood to work up a sweat changing it!!

Maybe the guys that fix our a/c can do the drier...stay tuned.

We started the day with cool temps and overcast skies, the humido picked up in the morning and then in the afternoon the viento picked up, the humido dropped and el sol came out. Score!!

Happy to have clear skies during race time as the past two nights with our rain, we have lost the signale to the satellite!!

The día? Bex took Max watch and after some mid-sleep TNT, there was a 415am wake up and the little man pushed the correct buttons (Bex's) and scored himself some super snugs until 610am.

Bubba had another sleep in...score...and took over at 7am.

The usual AM rutinas and after desayunos, we were off for a prowl...con Max's carretilla!! We had a great prowl and have discovered that Max has another hombre that sends him into heart pounding fright.

Mi ol'amigo Ghimbeli, who used to work at mi gimnasio, drove up on his very loud moto and Max started wailing. Max was behind a railing and 10 feet away, but he still was scared. He has seen Ghimbeli before and knows Ghimbeli by name...not sure what up.

Ghimbeli is a friendly hombre and seeing that Max was upset, took off with a wave adios. And after 2 minutes of distraction, Max was a-ok. Wacky mis amigos...wacky!!

415pm...a few yellow flags during the race....and Max y madre brought a gato home for some leche. She drank up the leche and now sits outside our front door miau'ing, with Max laying on his belly on the inside chatting it up with her.

Back to the day...prowled and then came home for another dip in the alberca which has become a super fun part of the AM rutina. A great cool down for Max and his Poppa!!

Post swim, upstairs for leche, libros and a good siesta!! And once that was over...onto the afternoon rutinas.

Max y Bex cooked up the pollo for la cena...and listening in, I can tell you that it was no simple feat!! Keeping the lil'man safe from raw pollo, from the stove and himself!!!

I watched some racing, ate my comida and then helped Max eat his, and then joined the familia for part of the swim.

And you are all caught up. Onto the fotos.

Pre-prowl and here is el gato getting some loving from Max. Yup, the same gato that just leche'd up at our front door.





And with a besito, we were off.


Poppa...more fotos?


Ok, tongue out...we are ready to go!!


Max showing me where the lluvia fell last night.



Cookie would be proud!!


Poppa broke down and paid the $5 pesos so Max could ride the mechanical jet ski. But I got these mug shots in return!!







Off to cook la cena...hasta pronto.

Buenos noches. Lots of thunder out there, obscura nubes tambien, but no lluvia...yet!!

A great dinner and then an easy clean up, onto tina time and round 1 of bed time is just about over...time for The Niño Whisperer!!

Mañana? The usual morning, but at 9am I am headed off to see Tony and get a lot of work completed on the camioneta verde. Clean fuel injectors, clean interior of motor, change oil and filter and change the mangueras (rad hoses) that I have been carrying around for a few months.

And somewhere in there, I will call Jose Antonio and see if he repairs dryers. Stay tuned.

Misc

And here they are!!! Yup, the weather stats from mayo...hot off the press!! We had average lows of 27,9 grados vs 26,8 in mayo 2013. We had average highs of 32,7 vs 31,9...it was a hotter month all around and I contribute that to the fact that we had more days with some precipitation vs last year (9 vs 7), but most of it was at night and we only had 2 good downpours vs a tropical storm in mayo 2013.

More humido then last year and we can expect lots of humido in junio. The records show that it is either a full day of humido, or from 4pm-8pm and then it cools down.

As for the rest of junio, we can expect average lows of 27,0 and highs of 31,6 with around 10 days with precipitation. Last year we had a mix of day and night showers...we prefer the night ones!!

Hey...now it is 10pm....yikes!! A long bedtime and then Bex and I had our date/movie night!! We managed to watch the documentary Searching for Sugar Man and enjoyed it.

Ok...time to wrap it up. Have a great lunes y hasta mañana.

Marco, Bexico y Max
