Pogo left at 7:30am to walk around town before it got crowded. I started writing yesterday’s blog. Uploading my pictures has been an annoying issue on this trip. We met Derrick and Deidre for breakfast at 8:30am, took a taxi to the bus station and after an 4 hours ride, we arrived in Guadalajara at … More Mexico – Day 36

We left Casa Mia at 8am and walked down the hill to catch a cab to go to the bus station. Pogo had bought tickets online but never got a confirmation so we had decided to go early. It was a good thing because they couldn’t find us in their system. We bought 4 more … More Mexico – Day 35

We met up with Deidre and Derrick at 8:30am and walked around until we found a breakfast place. We found one called Mama Mia in a beautiful courtyard. Their cafe de olla was half coffee half chocolate and was yummy. After breakfast, we walked some more. The square was quiet because of being still early … More Mexico – Day 34

The morning was spent preparing for our trip to San Miguel: packing, cleaning the fridge and giving perishable to Josée, washing sheets and picking up in case Marta comes while we are away. Derrick and Deidre enjoyed a little walk on the beach and sitting in the sun. We left the condo at 1:00pm and … More Mexico – Day 33

I woke up to a beautiful sunrise reflecting in the clouds. We took our walk but instead of stopping at Starbucks, we went straight to Jude Bistro and Bar, inside the mall, to have breakfast. Derrick had a BLT with avocado. Pogo and I shared one as well and a fruit platter. Deidre didn’t eat … More Mexico – Day 32

We had a lazy morning, sipping coffee. We drove Deidre to her pilates class at 10:30am then we went to….wait for it….La Isla for breakfast! Derrick wanted to try the poached eggs that Deidre had had a few days ago. Pogo and I shared some too with our fruit platter. We just had time to … More Mexico – Day 31

The boys left at 8:15am for their bike rides. Deidre and I walked to D Bistro for breakfast. Then I drove us to the pilates studio. Being a beginner, my instructor concentrated on my breathing, my posture and mostly my abs. Let’s just say that it was challenging. I probably will be sore tomorrow. We … More Mexico – Day 30

Today was all about eating! We took our regular walk with Derrick and Deidre to Starbucks. On the way back, we stopped at the bank and the machine kept Deidre’s card. They said to come back later so they could get someone to retrieve it. We went for brunch at La Isla and it was … More Mexico – Day 29

We had a busy morning. First we called Shauny for his 31st birthday. It was great to hear his voice and catch up. Then it was grocery, Starbuck, car wash and gas station, cleaned fruits and veggies, cooked some some onion and chorizo for quesadillas, and prepared guest bedroom and bathroom. We had lunch at … More Mexico – Day 28

We went for our typical walk to Starbucks and La Isla for breakfast. We had heard from Deidre saying that they were trying to switch their flights for tomorrow as Chicago, their layover, was expecting a snowstorm on Wednesday. We had decided to go do the grocery today but before leaving, we double checked with … More Mexico – Day 27
