Yes, we're wandering, but we're still Americans, so Sunday was Super Bowl. We didn't really have any skin in the game, but we live on a street full of places to get cheap beer and watch sports soooo. Sunday evening we marched all the way around the corner to Veintiuno, which, if you have any …

Our last weekend in Guadalajara
It seems crazy, but this is our last weekend in Guadalajara. Next weekend we are in Mexico City and then we head back to the U.S. on the following Thursday. The time here has just flown by. I took Friday afternoon off and met Sue in El Centro after her last day of school. I …
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 – …
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 …
A relaxing weekend
Our drinks at De La O We started our weekend on Friday night by walking over to a bar called De La O Cantina. It is a pretty hip place with interesting drinks and tacos. One of the challenges we have found is that many of the places that we are planning visit do not …
Settling in to GDL
As my wise friend Sally just said, "You have to be adaptable to do what you're doing." She's so right! As you know, Guadalajara was our consolation prize after Morocco shut down and we really didn't know what to expect. Our first few days left us wondering if we had made a good choice. We …
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 …
We Have a Plan (or So We Think)
First things first or a moment of gratefulness: Thank you, Sandy, for generously allowing us to stay in your home in Florida when we were at loose ends. We had a few days of discombobulation, but sunshine and a comfortable working environment made a huge difference. Florida wildlife and the view from Sandy's patio. After …
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 …
