This blog is less about places we’ve been and sites we’ve seen and more about spending quality time with Family and Friends!
For the casual reader, based upon the many pictures included, it may seem that all we do is dine and enjoy beverages! Nay! Nay!
It just happens that we take pictures when we dine and enjoy beverages!
Terri’s sister Roseanne came for a week’s visit, so they dropped over!
Betty, Bob, Val, George, Roseanne, Terri and Elaine enjoying beverages away from the wind!Val needed help in finding her way home that night!
We thought about going back to Technotel for Valentine’s Day (El Día del Amor) but the menu wasn’t as good as New Year’s! So we went to Tony Roma’s in Merida. While the ambiance wasn’t totally romantic, the ribs were good!
Elaine, Terri, Mat, George, Val and George’s friend from Germany, Siegfried!Terri’s friend Lynn, Roseanne, Bob (enjoying his ribs) and Betty!
We did take Bob & Betty into Merida for a bit of a tour, with the highlight being a carriage ride on the Paseo de Montejo!
In the Kissing Chairs in Santa Lucia Park!We paid a visit to the Luz en Yucatan so they could see our favourite small hotel!At the Governor’s Palace!Heading out on the tour of Centro Merida!Smiles all around!Stopping for pictures at…… the Monumento a la Patria!Elaine with our driver and horse!Had a great dinner at La Tratto in Santa Lucia Park!Santa Lucia Park at night!

This was certainly the season for jigsaw puzzles (rompecabezas)!

On our last day, we went for lunch at the Tarraya in Telchac Puerto!
Great view! Great food! Yummy Pollo Maya!Betty by the turtle pond!With Captain Tarraya!Fabulous moon rise over Uaymitun!
All good things must come to an end… but we truly enjoyed Bob & Betty’s visit with us in Uaymitun!
