Welcome to our site!
Our goal with this site is to keep family and friends updated on our adventures. We want to stay connected with you! We hope to use this blog as a way to do that.
We will be sharing our thoughts on why we decided to do what we’re doing, how we decided to go where we are going, and then let you discover and explore the areas with us as we post images, videos and thoughts about what we are experiencing.
If you have questions or just want to get a hold of us, don’t hesitate to contact us.
The growing and harvesting and processing and machinery of rope making from sisal, aptly demonstrated by our incredible tour guide and rope making crew from the Hacienda, left us in awe. It’s probably better seen than described on paper, so Carma took videos along with pictures.
We have 20 feet of sisal rope. It’s coiled and ready to hang on our wall as soon as we have a place of our own. We watched it being made by hand on a day of Olympic proportions when it comes to fascinating memories.
And, Saturday Night Biciruta (Bicycle ride). Meat market. Arugula pizza.
Just a few of the images you will see in this week’s slideshow - coming to you from Merida, Mexico.
Tip the older gentlemen and women that bag your groceries. Who knew?! We were here a couple of weeks before we found out about this one. They are volunteers and they are there to earn a few pesos. (25 t0 50 cents)
If you saw our short video of the home we are staying in while in Merida, you know that doing our laundry is a very manual process.
We thought we’d share how it looks doing laundry at our house… enjoy the pics, presented in order of your normal washing cycle! The dry cycle can take up to 36 hours!
