Weekend in Veracruz
... here!!! That didn’t seem to slow us down but later we hit some kind of traffic jam that snaked all the way up a mountain and delayed us by about 2 ½ hours…….we eventually got home around midnight. Needless to say I didn’t make it to my 8.30am spinning class on Monday morning! But it was such a lovely relaxed weekend it was worth it. I am feeling better this week ...

City To Jungle
... was missing. He turned out to be a great room mate as I learnt a lot from this successful businessman who had his roots in Mexico City.
We were to gather soon for cocktails followed by an outdoor dinner party, a real treat of local food served from food stands, and games to play to win fake money for an auction later. I think I must have won close to 10,000 Pesos once I figured out which games I had better odds in. I did not bid for anything but contributed the money ...
