Feb 15, 2020 I had been expecting some important mail from the US including some of our tax documents so I stayed home in the morning while Holly took Olivia for her last class.  In the late afternoon we decided to take an evening stroll around central.  It was a perfect balmy evening when we…

Feb 13 and 14, 2020 On Thursday we did our normal schedule of school and going home.  We were planning on going to Deya’s house to have a double date with them on Valentines Day.  Deya said she might be able to get a babysitter for all three kids.  On the way home we bought…

Feb 11, 2020 Another regular school day.  The only special thing we did was we played Uno as a family for the first time.  Olivia loved the game and learned the rules quick.  Since we are leaving next week we have to start thinking about our departure and where we are going next.  Our class…

Feb 10, 2020 This is our last week of school.  School ends on Friday and our time at the RV park ends on Wednesday.  Next Wednesday we will leave San Miguel and look for new places to explore.  More about our plans later but for now it was our regular walk to school, lessons and…

Feb 9, 2020 It was a bright, warm day with highs forecasted in the high 70’s, a perfect day for the Xote Holidome water park.  Sophia and her mother Claudia from the RV park were going to us.  Lea and her son Rocky would meet us there.  Jim and his family would meet us there…

Feb 8, 2020 Olivia’s tennis instructor asked to move her lesson from her normal 6:00 PM to 1:00 PM.  We were fine with that since it would be cooler.  Since we were going to the water park tomorrow we stayed home most of the day.  Holly wanted some more tuna Chili Rellenos from the La…

Feb 7, 2020 While walking to school we came across a dog walker walking nine dogs of various sizes.  This was quite interesting to us since although we had seen plenty of dogs and people walking their dogs we had never seen an actual professional dog walker in San Miguel.  Considering how narrow some of…

Feb 6, 2020 Today it was finally good weather so after school I took Olivia to the park while Holly cooked dinner.  When we arrived at the park though there were no other people there.  As we sat down to wait for some people though we heard the sound of music coming from the street. …

Feb 4, 2020 The weather continued to be cool and cloudy with occasional rain.  On the way to school we stopped by a fancy bakery and got a fruit tart and a cinnamon roll.  This came out to 95 pesos which illustrates my point that you can spend a little or a lot since just…

Feb 3, 2020 For a change of pace we stopped by a restaurant for breakfast on the way to school.  Olivia got pancakes which came with freshly squeezed orange juice and a coffee for 70 pesos while Holly ordered fried eggs and refried beans for 60 pesos.  Olivia got three large, fluffy pancakes with chocolate…
