Hola no pictures as apparenty blogger is unfamiliar with my spanish. We are safe and having fun. Went on a boat tour yesterday, snorkelling, horseback riding and lots of tequila. Pa went to the bullfghts last night , boo, but came back without mishap (well not on him, the bull however slightly different story.) Today we rented a car and went to the mountains, found an amazing spot and will go back tomorrow and spend the night. we will take a taxi (water) to a beach and spend the day there snorkelling (as the best laid plans of mice and men......)
Love to all and Siobhan I have found you some amazing shells here. I think of you everytime I see the ocean.
Talk to you soon and will try to send pics when blogger not so cranky!
ma and pa

For all of you that I haven't been able to call, Pa and I are heading for Puerta Vallarta on Monday @ 6:30 am. We will have to go to Vancouver on Sunday as the plane leaves so early. We will return to Vancouver on the 23rd and then have to stay until the 24th as the plane arrives late. We are staying at the Luna hotel in Puerta Vallarta so you can check it out. Going on the European Plan which is a switch from the all inclusive so hopefully it will work out.
I am working from now until Sunday so if you wanna phone me, I am at work.
I will think of you all in your varying degrees of winter as I languish on a beach in the sun......now keep your eyes open for hurricane warnings there!!
We are taking the lap top in hopes that we can communicate from there but you know how that might go.
Love to all.
Ma&Pa and gummahonienonieluvvy

 
Saige is safe in Pa's loving arms 

OK I can't seem to either get Vashti on the phone, or onto Charli's blog so I am posting in the hopes that one of you will read this!!
I know that you are coming into Nanaimo @ 10:30 Jacqui, but what day please? LOL I thought you were coming on Saturday but now am confused...familiar state for me I know!
And to Vashti, I have been blogging the most profound and amazing comments on your blog, (actually brought myself to tears with my own wisdom) and blogger vomits me.
Ok then you are on the phone now.
