To our dear friends and family
This is a brief (for me) blog posting to wish you all a very Merry Christmas. We are so happy to have Danny, Alex and Alanna with us in Mexico for Christmas and New Years. Christmas Eve is the big holiday here - a family gathering of food and fireworks - December 25th is just another day. We made a feast tonight of guacamole, chicken, rice, roast potatoes, tortillas and veggies - enjoyed on our deck, while listening to the sounds of Sayulita.
A few hours ago, Santa Claus drove by, cushioned in the back of a light-bedecked truck - "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" played from the loudspeaker. As fiestas go, Christmas Eve is quiet - all we can hear at 11:00 pm is the sound of children singing and the odd firecracker. We are thinking this may truly be "Silent Night", as we haven't heard a peep from the neighbourhood dogs.
Tomorrow we will begin the day with a beach walk, and then back through the jungle into town. We'll make a few phone calls home, then spend the afternoon surfing, swimming and boogie boarding. It doesn't feel like Christmas, but it does feel very special.
Merry Christmas to everyone!
Love Ginny and Stephen
