Settling in to Our Winter Home

WHERE ARE WE? La Penita, Nayarit, Mexico

This morning was a rare occasion for me.  Having just gone through 2 time zones, and after being up before the roosters 2 days in a row for travelling, I was all bright eyed and bushy tailed at about 6 am this morning.  Because we have mountains behind us, we don't see the sunrise till about 6:30 so I got to get a picture of it.  Don't be asking for any more cause I am going to train my body to sleep a little longer right away.

About 10 am we trudged down the beach to go to the market.  Thursdays are market day here for the winter.  Not may vendors here yet because it is early in the season.  Also, Halloween is not a big deal down here.  More celebrations on Nov 1 & 2 for Day of the Dead. 

A quick shop and then it was lunch time.  Our friends Jeff and Fany and Max joined us for the market and lunch tour.  We chose to eat at Irma's today.  Kenia and Katherine showed up as well so we all had a nice visit.

Then it was time to head back to the park for an afternoon swim.  I had to show Max our banana tree.  There are lots of bananas on it, but they are not the real tasty kind.

That was how our day all turned out.  We will have to take our time getting used to the heat and humidity.  The sun is a little different here because I can run around with no shirt for most of the day and not get a sun burn.  At home I would fry.  The weather does look great for the next while.

So for now, this is where we will hang out and this is what we will do.  Good Nite!!
