There’s no denying that we enjoy being in Uaymitun for the coldest and stormiest season in South-Western Ontario!
However, we enjoy the culture, the history and the beautiful sights to be found in the Yucatán!
We enjoy having time just as a couple in love after 47 years!
But there’s also no denying that our life and times here in Uaymitun are enriched by “Family and Friends”!
After a short break following Dave & Deb’s visit, my brother Roger and wife Sandy, from Langley, BC, came for a two week visit!
We needed some supplies, so off on a day trip into Mérida
Our next day was a relax… pool… beach day!
Wednesday was FACES in Progreso… great music and lots of fun with family & friends!
Thursday, we were back to chillin’ at the beach!
We were able to spend some more time with friends down the beach!
We reciprocated a few days later with a surprise birthday for Paul & Kari! Elaine did a fabulous job pulling everything together for a small group of 18!
A great time was had by all!
For our 2013-2015 winters, we were fortunate to have Panchita and her family act as valedors for Uaymarima! They grew to be close friends and we were saddened when the amount of work for Panchita grew too great for her alone as her family grew and moved on to lives of their own.
Each year, we’re happy that they enjoy coming out to Uaymarima to visit! Even though our Spanish gets a little bit better each year, it’s never been an impediment to our enjoyment of their company!
This year, most of the family, including the 3 little ones, came for an afternoon of brownies, Coke, snacks and fun!
That’s all for this blog post… watch this space for more Uaymitun life!
Cheers from Uaymitun!
