Puerto Penasco, Mx:
We are blessed to have the immediate family together for a week at xmas. We left the Kookaburra in San Carlos and drove north to Puerto Penasco to the Myan Palace for the holiday week. It was a long drive with some road work and a bit of washed out road from an unusual rain last week. Still much better than trying to find a spot for the boat in the town. There are few spots and with a 15 foot tidal range not a good idea to leave the boat 30 km from the resort. So all in all, a smart change of plans.
The kids [Ben/Jocelyn; Britt/Casey] flew into the resort airport on the 23rd to join us.
Still a little cool at night but great during the day. We just got back from a big family breakfast buffet. Everyone is stuffed and heading for the pool to nap in the sun. Gifts were small due to the distance traveled. And, of course, the greatest gift was everyone making some time in their busy lives to share themselves with us. It's been four months away from home; we've made new friends where ever we have gone; AND it is really good to see our family and know that they are doing just fine.
