ONLY TEN MORE SLEEPS

 You may have noticed I am down to counting sleeps. This is good or bad depending on the noise level. Yesterday was the worst. I woke up  to the sound of a guy scraping in the cement, this was before 6 and it went from there. Today is occupation date for 2 of the condos. They have a roof now, but not much else. The roof is really a nice tile unfortunelty it does not go together like legos, the pieces have to be sanded with an electric sander to make them fit right. Finally Marvin got up and said "lets go I have had enough", at first I thought he meant the airport but no he meant a walk. 

This is what we found on our walk
 Karen - do you recall the day we walked near the other Marina and it was so stinking hot? Well if we had just looked across the road we would have seen this place. It was exactly where the taxi dropped us off just on the other side.
 And we would have been eating this instead of paying 200 pesos for the worst pizza in the history of pizza lol and this cost , well the bill was 185 pesos and that included 2 beer. Marv has this look on his face because there must be at least a dozen wings and they are huge.
 After lunch we had a nice walk and of course hit Super Che. We found the local jail and I think the municipal building.


Then home and into the pool. There was a Spanish couple there when we arrived, they did not stay long. Then along came the young people from the condo below us and we did not stay long.


The noise level upstairs was unbelievable. They had the grinder for the roof going, the electric saw cutting tiles and the rock pounder, doing what ever rock pounders do.  It was unbearable and we both had ear plugs in. Finally after 6 Marv got someone's attention down at the site and used sign language to tell him to turn it off. He kept pointing to the rock drill and his watch. Unbelievable - they stopped it and in a few minutes the other equipment shut down and I didn't hear anyone this morning until 8. In fact I had a dream that Mexico had closed down and everyone had left lol.
This is the last time we will see a ship leave this trip. Sandy and Al I think this may have been the ship you were on.
