I’m in the middle of an op report (flexor tendon repair, if you were really wondering) but I had to stop, get up, walk outside and enjoy – if not only for the loss of power but also the draw of the rain… Day after day of dry and dust and finally RAIN! The . . . → Read More: first rain of the season I’ve written about 3-4 posts in my head but unfortunately you guys never read them because by the time I get to the computer, POOF, they’re gone. I’ve been crazy bizzy with two Final exams and two “other” exams. I’ve sent in one Final and one “other” and have finished the other and the other Final and am waiting teacher feedback before I proceed with sending those in. I’ve now started on internship (Advanced Sessions) and I can’t believe how HARD it is. Luckilly, looking at the forums I see that I’m not alone – everyone seems to go through this in these sessions. I am, however, finding it hard to believe that I will be even minimally employable as it seems that I have learned NOTHING over these last 12 basic sessions. Sigh. So that’s been taking up a bit of my time. Continue reading That damn dawg I am having a difficult time coming back from whatever happened on Thursday. Systemic, local, reaction, whatever. I have had severe GI issues (which are supposed to be a sign of allergic reaction, according to Dr. Jamie-Google), sweats, foggy head and dizziness. At least the fever is gone and I think the GI will . . . → Read More: Still coming out of the fog I’m not a religious person. I don’t believe in a God. But you have to have a stone heart to listen to Martin Luther King Jr. preach. Goosebumps. Tingling. I have to stop work, gaze into the distance and sink into his words. The man brings tears to my eyes. Baja is a different county. It is hard to recognise that the penninsula is simply two more states of the United States of Mexico, because it is so incredibly different. We’ve only been in mainland Mexico for 2 days, but it feels like we’ve travelled to a different country. Municipal markets are in every . . . → Read More: Culiacán We made it to La Paz but a full update will have to wait til later. Tomorrow I hope to check ferry schedules and see if we can get a booking. Love to all and nice to see Papa and Tata back in the swing again! They’re in Nevada, headed for Texas and then to the Yucatan. All good; they just don’t update like those of us who can’t stop jabbering. A note for everyone who contacted me, worried about them. I’ll answer emails tomorrow; sorry about the delay. Picture is of the road into camp… This would be an absolute paradise but for the past three days of high clouds. I heard from a fellow camper, who spoke with someone (or someone who spoke with someone ) on a ham radio that the clouds are from a storm hitting San Diego. And . . . → Read More: Playa Requeson We spent the entire morning in San Ignacio, walking around the plaza; walking around the center of town (well, in actuality, that would be the plaza and about 2 blocks surrounding it); walking around the iglesia (1768 church). I spotted a tortilla factory and thought the kids might enjoy watching the tortillas made. When . . . → Read More: Mulege Some pictures of the town; we walked to the plaza and all around the plaza this morning. We found a tortilla factory and the boys bought two dozen. (una docena de harina, por favor?) It took them about 5 minutes to memorize the phrase and the tortilla ladies were quite taken with all four. . . . → Read More: San Ignacio |
