Then there was Huatabompito Mexico in 2010
awesome waterfront site !
          Me I did some "Go fer" stuff a few times today, Suzie took her Dad to a doctor's appointment , then he took her for lunch and to Freeport Rehab centre where her mom was transferred to yesterday afternoon waiting for an available room at Nithview Long term care in New Hamburg, hopefully soon.
          I was in charge of laundry today, Suzie sorts it and I let the machines do the work. We have been spoiled for the last 9 years by using Laundromats can get 2 loads done in not much more than an hour. Here with one washer and one dryer actually took  over 4 hours ! Hmm not impressed I have things to do, and not allowed to leave the gas dryer running when I am not here.
          But got errands done, and only 2 miles on the indoor walking track, better than nothing. Not much scenery there but all the time dreaming of all the sunny warm places we have been, sure helps. Grabbed a new to me flannel shirt at the thrift store (5 bucks) and home to begin supper as Suzie left Kitchener with her Dad.
         Tonight a very tasty Salmon fillet, done under the broiler for about 10 minutes. Prepared some spaghetti noodles, and sautéed some fresh mushrooms, onions, red peppers and garlic until translucent, added some alfredo sauce and 2 tbls of lemon juice, simmer another 5 minutes or so and the put it all together. Steamed asparagus (or microwave for about 90 seconds) on the side and fresh chopped chives on top = yummy!

all together very tasty and hit the spot
       Things are moving along having a bit of private action on the house, looks promising, just wait and see, this house will sell itself. The location is amazing!
        Thanks once again for stopping by and keep us updated with your winter adventures down south (or Hawaii) or even up north too, nice to compare  notes.
Check out the interactive map below to see where we have been this past Winter.

  3. One of my favorite places.... Huatabompito. We had a dust/sand storm while there that lasted a couple of days. Also took some Spanish lessons from one of the locals... great memories! I know what you mean about the laundry... it does take a while when you have only one machine.

  7. That's why traveling is so fantastic - while we can't do it we can look back on all the great places we've been. We'll have to put that in place next winter! Glad all is well George!

  8. One of the main reasons I love having my blog. When we're sitting here doing nothing I can always go back and look at the places we've been and the things we've done. I love it. Especially the "warm" pictures.
