Back to reality

Ola,

Sitting in the bus, crossing the bridge, just hung up the phone to tell GG that when I opened the blinds this morning, the sun was shining against a bright blue sky background, as I used to tell her almost every morning for the past week or so... We simply had a great vacation together...

Looking at other people in the bus this morning... feels weird... there is so much clothing covering their body... And where did they put the smiles they all had on their faces last week... Ho.. right, these are not the same people I was looking at last week, and we are not in the same country, with the same weather... though I find that it is a beautiful day today... It was warm enough last week to melt a good portion of the snow that could be seen when we left over a week ago... And even though the weather channel says it is -5 outside (-10 with the wind factor)... I just don't feel it... I traded my usual boots (you know which ones :-), with a pair of shoes and my Kanuk with a leather jacket (a warm one, but still)... And with that bright sunshine and a wall to wall blue sky... How could I not smile...

OK, enough about today, I guess you want to hear about my trip to Mexico... I will just give you a sneak preview cause the bus is getting close to the terminus... We partied all night long, for 6 out of 7 nights, we got a good sun tan, we drank, we ate very well, we laughed, we met very interesting people, I got a chance to sing in front of a crowd a few times, and we even had a magical after-hours night with a few friends around a piano in a closed (though unlocked) restaurant... It was great...

I took lots of pictures, and wrote a daily blog while I was there, but these will be published on my French traveling blog only... I will let you know when it is ready... Here's an example of how it felt there:

Till then... Have fun... I had a load of that last week...

BYE
MAD

P.S.: I started following a great pair of boots out of the bus... Nice looking hair from what I could see from behind her, but the stalking ended abruptly when she entered where no man has gone before (or at least shouldn't have), the girls room of the bus station... Ho Well...

P.P.S.: About this post title: "Back to reality"... Still... It is a reality that I truly love... So I'm not complaining about coming back to it :-)
