Watching Caterpillars turn into Butterflies

WHERE ARE WE? La Penita, Nayarit, Mexico

The construction on the new condo's continues and it looks like they are prepping the pool area.  There will be a ground level pool and a rooftop pool as well.  It is a good place for Archie and I to walk to each day.  

The caterpillars that we have in the vine on the house have gone into cocoons and some of the early ones are turning into butterflies.  Apparently the caterpillars are quite nasty if they get on you and they leave a burn type sensation.  Anyway it makes for fun watching them do their thing.

the underside of the wings are sort of plain

But the top is amazing

lots of spectators

nasty little caterpillars

The rest of the day was spent relaxing and waiting for sunset.  It was beautiful when it did arrive.

Ken fell asleep waiting.

We caught Wanda and Irwin and John and Susan strolling down the beach on their way for supper.  John and Susan will be heading back to the Great White North tomorrow!!!  See you again!!!

And they walked off into the sunset!!

The sun has climbed all the way up to the top of the mountain and will begin its descent into the ocean over the next couple weeks.  Winter is going fast this year and it won't be long before we have to leave.  Good Nite!!!
