Ah, good to be home. Sleeping in own bed with cats (and hubby too). I'm ready to do laundry and go back. It was so nice and warm there - 85-92 days, upper 50's low 60's nights. A couple overcast days turning sunny in the afternoon, and one day of rain. But it was warm rain!
Mazatlan trip was really good. Enjoyed it muchly. Layed around, ate, shopped, read 3 books (Kev read all 8 we brought, and tore one up after finishing it, it was so badly written by an idiot), layed around and read some more. ate. MMmmm camarones! (shrimp) I think I can go another year without shrimp. When you've had the best, it's difficult to enjoy the rest.
Speaking of food, I had the best flan ever! (carmel custard). Made the old fashioned way. Dense texture and super creamy! I'm talking 17 years since I had my last best flan, and this was better, and the place I had my last best flan no longer serves it. MMmmmm flan.
However, I brought home a "gift" I didn't want. I picked up a cold virus. I know exactly where and who I picked it up from! The brother of the guy (Juan) who runs the internet cafe across the street from the hotel. (less than 1/2 the rate of the hotel). He was there coughing and sneezing into a snot rag, but touching everything and not careful with the rag.... Next time I go back I should complain to Juan and get at least 5 minutes free (6 pesos - 53 cents).
Hugs, y'all
