home bound july 13

we're heading home today for 2 months and we'll miss the lifestyle we've grown accustomed to here in mazatlan - but we sure won't miss the heat and humidity.

we're being sent off with a gentle reminder of how quickly things can change. i was awakened about 4am with lightning and by 6 it turned into a squall with pelting rain, thunder and lightning (very close by) and winds clocked up to 35 knots. i'm assuming we'll still make our flight later this afternoon. it is exciting to watch nature roar up like this with the boat rocking and rolling at the dock and my hair whipping my face. pure pleasure.





now, a few random shots to remind us of how special this place is.





one of the hotels i walked through had a koi pond with lily flowers











and koi more than a foot long









walking down some of the streets can be a real surprise when you peek inside the open windows like this place.
