Mostly about Paige

I am happy to report another warm sunny day transpired in Ixtapa. Paige has taken no more than 45 seconds to feel at home in this place. Today she became an explorer.

Paige, checking out pools, making sure she's playing in the best one
around here. She is.

Paige off on a personal journey. Linda managed to persuade her
to return to the pool just as she was getting on a bus for Zihua.

the real charmer.

Is she photogenic or what?

Late afternoon Carol and I went to the meeting at Zihuatanejo for another lively and interesting Bible study about how the sacrifice of Jesus Christ paralleled in many ways events of the Jewish Passover. I wondered if parts of it might come across a little technical and dry but not a bit of that. It absolutely sparkled and inspired.

We stopped afterwards for supper in an Ixtapa outdoor restaurant, visited as usual by table vendors approaching from time to time. One fellow with a rack of children's bracelets with personal names woven in did not have any with the names of our grandchildren. No problem, he offered to make them especially for us while we ate. I watched him do it and it's still a mystery to me how he can make one in five minutes. Bravo Marcelo!

On the way home we noticed two ladies taking photos of each other at a torch light outside a restaurant designed like the Taj Mahal. I offered to photograph them together. They returned the favor by photographing Carol and me in the same setting ...


And so it goes.
