Travel notes from Mimi and Jonna
Mangled language sign of the day.
posted by Jonna at 11:03 AM
Since September of 2001, Mimi and I have lived in our 27' RV, Tortuga, spending winters in Mexico and Central America and summers in the US. We've had a condo on the Caribbean coast of Mexico, in Akumal, for over 10 years and in 2007 we bought a 100+ year old colonial in Mérida that we are starting to renovate. We lived with our 2 Yucatan beach dogs Hombre and Chica for 4 years and in October of 2007 we added another rescue, Cuba. It's getting crowded but once the house is done we will have lots of room, maybe too much room. I wonder sometimes if we will all get lost in so many rooms.

there is a Cinnabon at Gran Plaza too, I don't like their cinnamon rolls, too much frosting.

yes.. yes.. yes... mangled language, cinnabuns... all very nice. But I'm up to my icybuns in snow and ice and I want more. I'm finding I'm jonesing for Jonna! Muy aburrido when life is so shut down. ... The Naked Rule: if, where you live, you walk outside naked during any time of the year and the climate attempts to kill you - move. 56 days to Yucatrip.
Thanks a lot Theresa, we are living almost across the street from the Gran Plaza mall. Unfortunately, the difference between you and me is that, for me, there is no such thing as too much frosting. In fact, I'd be happy to skip the bun entirely and just have a bowl of frosting.
House update coming soon Rummy. Does it help any to say that it has been cold (that's relative), gray and raining all day? In fact, I'm making beef stew right now to warm us up. I"m back in my Ugs and flannels and it is 75°f right now at 7:30pm. brrrr...
Oh, and one of my infamous statements back in my youth about why no one should live north or east of SF was: you should never live where Mother Nature is trying to kill you. If you can't sleep outside and not die, you should move.
".....If you can't sleep outside and not die, you should move"...... I definitely agree with those sentiments - but no chance getting hubby to agree - :-( Am thankful, tho, it's only 44 degrees above (last week was 26 below) here in Wasilla AK today....much worse in Lower 48.
I just found the perfect housewarming gift for you.

Anyway to get it down there without paying horrendous customs/duty fees???

I appreciate your care for my frozen feelings ;) I've just made soup - smoked turkey leg & bean - and then shovelled off the patio - 2 words that just shouldn't be in the same sentence. My friends well know my Naked Rule and DNA'd abhorrence to winter. Will be checking for the house update... muchisimas gracias.
