Wow! It's been over a year since I last left some news on my little website! The end result of the craziest year of my life is that Simba and I sold up and moved back to Bucerias on New Year's Day! Since then, Simba has reached the grand old age of ten, and my 60th year promises to be the best ever. I have added a few new photos to my "Life and Loves in Latin America" album, and have created a new one to keep you up to date with where I'm living now. I have my old job back at the Royal Decameron resort, teaching English to the executives there, and rush back home each day to pick up Simba for his walk on the beach before a light supper. Ahhh, bliss! At this time of year, most gringos are heading back North to beat the heat, but Simba and I, along with about 50 other die-hard foreigners will soon welcome the rainy season with it's spectacular thunderstorms and warm showers. The last time I remember being caught in a storm, I was swept off me feet and carried almost a whole block on the rushing water before being dumped unceremoniously into the ocean! Actually, it was kind of fun and terrifying at the same time! Around 5 p.m. each day during the rainy season, we experience true torrential rain for about an hour. Then the sun comes out again, sparkling on th leaves of grateful trees, and causing all the birds to ruffle their feathers and resume their raucous chatter. Only a month or so to go now. Let's just hope I don't end up on my ample posterior in the ocean this year!
