I have to get a pack...and new shoes, and Angel needs shoes. We were going to go out this morning but it was pouring. Nice now, but I'm doing laundry.
I reserved our room for when we land in Cancun. I sure love the internet. It makes communication so much easier. I think we will only stay about 2 nights and then go to Merida.
I would love to go down the coast and explore more, but our budget is limited. Only thing is with everything growing so fast...it might be a while before we are back and a lot will have changed.
But we are on a mission..and so I think will stick with the itinerary I've figured out so far.
I'm using a different computer...and my pics are on the camera which I need my computer for...so later I'll put up a bunch more.
Well thats all for now.
Adventurez in Mexico is the journey of a child and her mother thru Mexico during the winters of 2008/9 and 2009/10. Share the adventures thru the eyes of Angel as her mother Tina Winterlik, captures it thru photography, music and videos. Don't Miss Adventurez in Mexicol-"The Movie!"

Lost her first tooth!!
Big day at our house yesterday!!
Angel lost her first tooth!!
So exciting and something very symbolic and special to me.
Yesterday was 35 years since my dad passed away.
I had promised myself that if the weather was nice we'd take the bus to Hope and put flowers on the grave. I been drying them all summer, every little bouquet I collected I would put in this special box.
But alas just as I was chastising myself for not going...and well I was actually writing in my journal apologizing to Dear Daddy...when Angel burst into the livingroom..."I lost my tooth!!" What could be more special and memorable to mark such a wonderful event.
I felt my dad was saying "Don't worry about it!" I'm right here and I know.
So it was a very special moment!
And then when Angel took her nap...the Toothfairy came and left her a $1 and she was very happy.
It was a very nice day!

61 hours
That's about how many hours we will be riding buses if all goes to plan.
Thing about a trip like this is that anything can happen, so it's more of a research everything well and then go with the flow.
I bought the Lonely Planet Mexico, and I've had my nose stuck in there for the last 4 days.
My back is aching...the warm weather will be lovely...so nice not to have to shovel snow all winter.
Well not long now, just a few more days of work and then we still have things to get ...like I need a nice light pack and Angel and I both need shoes.
And I'm going to pick up some material for mosquito netting...I can buy some there but it might not be as fine as I like.
Others things we are going to do are:
* make a bunch of natural bug repellant.
* buy a bunch of batteries, and cd's to burn photos to.
* find nice fleece jacket and rain coat for Angel.
* get a nice light sleeping bag
* get a Spanish Language Cd's-we just found a free Cd player...so that's great.
It's going to tough keeping things light and simple but it has to be.
Lots of planning.
Today is Thanksgiving! Thank you God and Universe for this wonderful trip.
Special Thanks to Eva and Casey for your support.

I sure am looking forward to the beautiful inspiring scenes and being able to paint again. It's been a long time.
You can see more of Tina's artwork from Zipolite here.
