And we start 2015 like we ended 2014, with un sonrisa!!
Buenos tardes y feliz Año Nuevo, or as they say here, Buen Año.
OK, how was the noche after our NYE celebrations? A good one...phew!! Max slept from 910pm until our 2am pee break and then was lights out again until 635am. Score!!
Leche y videos and then into the Palacio at 716am, where we discovered that yes, madre had dragged her butt out of bed at 515am and was off for her sunrise paddle.
The Boys had their usual rutina, fun time, our bowl of fruta and then some videos...back to the letter "I" by request.
All cleaned up and geared up, and we were off for a bici tour.
Meanwhile, Bex had returned with a huge sonrisa of her own. She said the sun had not yet risen when she made it out to playa Chahue and saw the playa packed with peeps.
Some peeps were lighting and sending up paper lanterns and all of a sudden el sol came up. The reflection of the sun reached Bex's board and she turned around and was blown away by the beauty of the sight.
She told us that she stood there for 10 minutos, having a moment, and when she turned back towards the playa, everyone was gone!!
She paddled back to Santa Cruz and came home to catch up with the familia, do a little work and then she met her familia at Los Portales for desayunos.
A full house at Los Portales and many of the otra restaurantes in town, but the meseros took great care of us.
Only 1010am when we finished up, so the familia had a bici tour...Bex y Bubba chasing after Max on his bici!!
And hello...off to Soriana!! Welcome to 2015...ja ja ja.
Home for 11am, onto leche y libros and then onto siesta. Another good one for all involved...The Boys in the chill room and Bex in the otra recamara.
Woken up at 130pm...or who knows when we would have woken up...and Max was onto libros with his madre before heading into the cocina and then onto his comida.
Post comida, the familia was out the door, taking 2 bicis to the parque to have some fun, and maybe hook up with Max's amigo Kyler.
Me? El gimnasio is cerrado, so I had a tranquilo afternoon that included some casa clean up, some web browsing, a run to SCA to see if they had any Gerbers for the backed up niño, and then some blog updating.
Yikes....5pm and I have 3 burners and the horno going...and it is 31,2 grados outside. Can you say stinking hot?
Ok, onto the fotos before I melt.
The rest of the 3rd floor landing poses.
Off to the CP trabajadores shack to collect some pesos!!
Choque with Marcos and we collected $500 pesos.
Poppa...are you coming?
At Los Portales...the "I am waiting for my quesillo" looks.
Ta da...a bowl of quesillo and we did not even have to ask!!
And look who just joined us...Smoochie Monster herself!!
Hey madre, has getting up at 515am for a sunrise paddle affected you in any way?
Excuse me!!
Why they do not out law this...I do not know.
Hmmmm? Two sets of legs behind an arbol?
Someone is going horizontal!!
Poppa, act cool...like nothing has happened.
Hola hola madre. We were just looking for limons!!
Max has umph back in his step as Poppa looks for tráfico...the wrong way on a one way calle. Oh Poppa!!
And off we go...like hanging on to a bolt of lightning.
Misc
Ta da...the weather stats from diciembre de 2014!!
We had average lows of 24,8 grados and highs of 30,8. These compare to 25,0 and 31,3 from 2013...slightly cooler...brrrr. We had one noche where some rain fell and 4 días with noticable humido, and that compares to 2 days with rain in 2013 and 4 days of humido tambien.
Enero? Last year we had average lows of 23,5 and highs of 30,5, so it will still be cool here. We had no lluvia and one day with humido. Oh yes, enero is a month in which we enjoy the weather!!
Familia is home...time for la cena.
Back at you post tina time.
Hasta pronto.
Buenos noches!! Bedtime has arrived and Max is on the leche y libro portion with The Niño Whisperer due in 25 minutos.
Max had a fun afternoon, but his amigo is a little bit of a clinger and Max likes his space. Madre coached him on this and soon afterward she heard "Kyler, I need more space" coming out of his boca. Success!!
Home for la cena and then a FT con Oma y Opa, one where they could not hear us but we could hear them...doph.
And post casa clean up, we were out the door for a familia prowl. Nice to get out and the town is still hopping.
Home for tina time and ta-da...the día.
Have a great viernes y hasta mañana.
Marco, Bexico y Max
