love this weather!

Hi from Jack,
We decided we needed a vacation ,we saw an ad in the local paper about a trip to the beach, you have to understand that we are miles away from the beaches,we are in a Mexican village which is 5000 ft. above sea level,the reason why we have perfect weather. so we booked a trip which leaves on Feb.11th. called Valentines day at the beach, for 4 nights, 5 days, we leave here by luxury bus and believe me they are luxurious! It is an all inclusive, all meals and drinks plus daily entertainment and nightly shows all for the price of $279.00We had another interesting day yesterday with our new found couple from Nova Scotia,we met in the morning at the weekly open circle ,after the meeting where we listened to the guest speaker giving a talk and advice on health issues. We then set off to a new restaurant which just opened last week, half a block from our house,and had a nice brunch under open skies. We then had a little walk along the lake front and watched the Mexican families picnicking along the shore. Gary and Cathy,our friends,had not seen our place so we invited them in for an afternoon drink and a chat to get to know them better. I asked them if they played bridge ,which they didn't,but both said they would like to learn, so I proceeded to get a deck of cards and give them their first lesson, after about an hour we had our first game, they loved it ! so now we also have bridge partners. After cards and beer and wine we thought we would walk up to the square and have supper at one of our favorite restaurants, which we did ,and parted company about 9pm.
All that since 10am. Truly a great day all round.
Jack
