After a sketchy, rather itchy night morning was welcome. We finished packing and put on bathing suits for a final plunge after delivering our beach chairs and umbrella and unused good to Rudy's.
Had the pool to ourselves. I have enjoyed swimming and though I'm nothing for form, I like moving through the water and see improvement in my stamina.
I dressed and walked out to a farmacia to get some more retin A for a friend. The prices here for meds are astounding. And one can get most anything.
I love feeling safe wandering around solo.
Taxi came and picked us up at the door.
It's good. I hope I keep my happy.
People are so courageous. The gentleman sitting next to me now on the plane is 5 years older than me. Speaks no English. No clue how to fill out the paperwork. And he can't see well enough to write. I am helping him. He is here to visit his daughter in Ellensburg where she has a restaurant. What did he bring into the US? Just some dulces for his family.
I simply hope he is treated kindly.
My heart is full of emotion. So grateful for these experiences that come to me. And so happy, especially now that I am not itchy! Makes the everyday feel spectacular- which it is.
We've been away long enough that coming home feels like an adventure!
And Christina texted me to says she left Batdorf and Bronson coffee on the counter for me. It's the little things.
And I hear Mina's words. Since they can't count on their government for anything, they live with the belief that they create their own happiness....and they are a happy lot. At least that's my spin.
Signing off now.
