We're Here!

We are here in Mazatlan!!  Safe and sound after a 2 hour delay in Phoenix.  The flights were smooth and all worked out well - except that Denny had to stay home because of the stomach flu.  He is flying out this morning and will join us by 2:30 today.  Ann and Denny have been coming here for years.  Ann did a wonderful job leading and guiding us last night, but I know she will be happy when her hubby is here :-)


Last night we ate at Pancho's - a delicious, more up-scale restaurant on the ocean.  We enjoyed grilled shrimp, delicious guacamole, soup, etc.  We were exhausted and in bed by 10:30.

The house we're staying in has four bedrooms and three bathrooms.  There is a big kitchen, dining room, and living space.  All couples get to share a room.  Shelley has her own bedroom, and we moved a bed downstairs into the entry for Dan.

Right now we are sitting in a delicious coffee shop, having a bite to eat and using the wireless.  I'm not sure how often we'll get to a place to use internet, but we'll try to at least every-other day.

After we eat, six of us are going to the grocery store.  It will be a fun adventure, as a couple of the group hasn't grocery shopped in Mexico before :-)  It will also be fun to find a taxi to bring us back to the house!

We are going to Rancho De Los Ninos after we go to the store - it is an orphanage started by retired Americans, which serves children with special needs.  Ann and Denny adopted their children from that home - speaking of which, their children are staying with us this week, along with their 6 month old baby.  They are WONDERFUL children, and we're having so much fun being with them.

I need to let Eric use the computer for a bit.  Our love to you!!
