Week #13 December 30th 2018 to January 5th, 2019

Wishing all family, friends and Blog watchers a very Happy Prosperous, Safe, Healthy and Blessed New Year!

December 30 th was a special day, Allan and Howard's niece Jennifer Wright was married to Evan Farquhar at an all inclusive resort in Cozumel. Jennifer is Greg and Mary Lynn Wright's daughter.



In Cozumel Theresa was looking for new line dancing boots - I think she found a pair. The polka dots matched her dress so she wore them to the wedding.

   This church is the  Iglesia de San Miguel
in the city of Cozumel






I don't often pass by a church without going inside to sit for a moment and listen to the quiet. Peaceful. 


The day started out with the promise of precipitation and we were not disappointed.


Bride and Father

The afternoon was constant periods of rain, rain and
 more rain however it did clear just long enough for 
the 5 p.m. wedding nuptials.


It was a lovely wedding attended by over 60 family members  and friends either from the Island or with Island connections. It is safe to say there was not a dry seat in the house.


Immediately following the wedding and our champagne toast to the Bride and Groom the torrential rain began!



There was no escaping it, everyone was drenched! They say rain on your wedding day is good luck - not so much for the Bride's father though I would say.




December 31, 2018 - New Year's Eve was celebrated with a nice crowd of friends at Louise and Gaston Begin's house. Everyone had a wonderful time because "The Begin's know how to throw a party!"


One afternoon we went into  (The Micheladas)  restaurant on the Highway, Colonia side just by the exit of Chedraui .  They serve great draft beer, this is going to become a watering hole for us on our grocery shopping trips. I hear the food is good too.

Wow that week flew by quickly - seems to be the norm for our time here in Puerto Morelos.

Take care everyone, stay safe and keep smiling!
