Still on Holidays - extended our stay for a bit (fortunate I can work from here) ... just a quick note to show I am still alive and what I have to look at every morning .... tough I know.

Still alive - just a quick pic from Mexico - decided to extend the stay ... lot's of pics coming at some point. Here's a teaser from this morning.

Right now I think I hate you Dave, it's snowing here which means it's snowing at your place too.
Seriously though great picture.

Thanks Bob - happy hour margaritta's were almost a daily event 2 for 60 pesos (about 12-1 vs USD) so how can you not ?

Thanks Volley - it was a great time indeed. I have not been to the other (Pacific side) of Mexico (but have in Costa Rica). While the weather on the Pacific side is much more consistent , I do prefer the Caribbean side. I say if you only have a week - go Pacific , if you have two or more , go Caribbean )
