Settling in....!

So off to Cancun to do the big box store shopping.....and Walmart has Christmas trees, for goodness sakes.....all the way from Oregon.












$58 for a big one, $38 for a small - a lot of money for a Mexican family to put out for a Christmas tree. The store is full of decorations....good grief, it feels way to early.
















So we want to introduce you to Poco Uno, Poco for short (means "little one" in Spanish) and this is the cutest little thing. Our laptop, which we nursed through the summer, praying it would last this winter down here, died the very day we got the internet. Figures. So we bought this little puppy at Walmart - A Compac HP pc, and as we struggle to deal with the Mexican keyboard and lots of Spanish on our screen, we at least are online and in touch with our world again.








Today, almost 2 weeks from when we arrived, we finally got to the beach!!! White sand, warm sun, lovely turquoise sea, good books, cold water - life is good and NOW we feel like we are finally home!!!!
