Four days and just a little sleep This has been a busy four-day weekend for us and I thought I would give you a quick idea of what our schedule was like. Sue will fill in more details in the next blog, but for now I just figured you might like to see a timeline …

OMG! We have a social life
On Saturday morning we grabbed breakfast across the street at Pata de Elefante. They have wonderful breakfasts, and Sue and I indulged. They had a two piece band (guitar and saxophone) playing in the corner and it enjoyed a quiet morning. Afterwards, we headed to Zapopan which is a city that abuts Guadalajara, and it …
Another beautiful weekend
We were very busy this weekend, and what stands out to me is that we weren’t really doing tourist stuff, we were just enjoying a city where we are temporary residents. The required photo of the Instagram sign in the park Friday night Sue made arrangements to meet a friend from school – Teresa – …
Field Trip to Tonalá
Announcement: yes we have power! It was on when we returned from our "vacation from our vacation," as our Tequila tour guide put it. OK, now onto our regularly scheduled program. The best days at school are the days you don't go to class! Every Wednesday is field trip day at IMAC (my Spanish school). …
Tequila Tour
Friday started out like a normal workday. Sue went to school and I sat down to work. Everything was fine until our cleaner noticed that the lights had gone out. I did not have the lights on and was working with my laptop, so I didn’t notice that the power was out. We tried various …

Our First Weekend
I didn’t realize that it has been nearly a month since I wrote a post. Many thanks to Sue for keeping everyone posted on our plans and travels. This is our first weekend in Guadalajara so we figured we should pack it full. Friday night we decided to go out to eat, and quickly settled …
Always Remember to Stay Flexible
Me, thinking about our plans for the next few months. I would like to report that we are spending our time in Florida visiting all the cultural and historic sites, but well, it is Florida, so not so much. Instead, we are working, visiting with my mother and obsessing over our next move. Today we …
The S & S Lemonade Company
We are working hard to make lemonade from the lemons we have been given. Last week, we had the next six months all planned. One week in Barcelona, three months in Fez, a month and a half in Rome and then a couple of weeks in Amsterdam. Then COVID reared its ugly head again and …
Back in the US, Back in the US, Back in the US…not USSR
I know that I missed our last blog post on Sunday and as penance, Sue is making me write this one. The past week has been pretty quiet. Last Friday morning, we flew from Nice to Paris, and despite our intention of going into the city for the afternoon, we ended up just sitting around …
