Wednesday is market day in Ajijic, so we headed up there around 10:00 or so. My dad and I set off ahead of Trev because he was busy farting around with his new bike. He has got it running so was driving around in circles in the parking area behind the real estate office across the street from us. He finally shows up but only after we bumped into Anna, a friend we had made last year while we were here on our focus on Mexico trip. My moms' hip was bothering her so she opted to stay at homes since walking on those cobbles can be challenging for somone in the best of health. so we got all our fruit and vegetables(cauliflower, cucumbers, carrots, tomatoes, grapes, strawberries, blackberries, plums, pears, and 2 cups of pomogranite seeds, plus some french bread and home made banana bread all for under $20. Not too shabby.
Then back to the house, dad and Trev picked up the van from around the corner and I treated the fruit and veggies before putting them away. It is a good idea to treat ALL your fruit and veg with iodine in water.
Then it was off to lunch at La Bodega - just 2 blocks down - there was some live entertainment, 2 gringos singing tunes from the 50's and 60's (sort of country). The food was great also.
Once we got back home we finally got around to mopping the floors....man that is tough work. Luckily we have a maid in the new house so my mopping days are numbered, which is a good thing. I needed a nap afterwards and by the time I got up it was 7:30 already. the days really do get away from you here.
Now it is 9:00 and we are having hot dogs for dinner.....how mexican is THAT!?!?! :)
