The day turned out to be a good one after all. The letting agent - pvkid - excelled himself and organised the Mexicans into action. Lucy the maid turned in a supreme performance and produced North American cleaning standards. Isaac the 'owner's rep' produced a coffeemaker and promised a toaster and patio furniture for the balcony, which was not seen in any of the pics and has been a very nice surprise. One of the joys of living here is a coffee/wine/rubbernecking session on the balcony. At the moment for instance there is a cop standing around two cars, on the other side of the road, and it appears to be a either shakedown or an accident. It's been going on for half an hour. Dusk is falling and the lights are quite magical. We spent the day walking around, getting tomorrow's food and just hanging out at a cafe. This can be done for another twenty-seven days. Combined with the thirty steps on the two sets of stairs and the legs are aching tonight - well we'll have to walk that off tomorrow. The temp when we get up will be about sixty degrees just right for a brisk walk to the beach and back. We did check out the pool and that may be on the agenda. Tomorrow I may also put some thought into the perennial problem in Cobourg sidewalk plowing.
It all looks lovely where you are. Looking out my front window right now in Cobourg I see a solid wall of snow blowing almost sideways from west to east and it looks nasty. It's been snowing like that in fits and starts all afternoon and will carry on til late tonight apparently. A good day to be in Mexico and a good day for me to stay home.
