This evening, Ken spotted three huge whale spouts, while looking out to sea from our apartment. They were far away but clearly visible to the naked eye. The whales winter here, arriving from Alaska in November and December and staying the winter season before returning in early Spring with their new babies.
This year, for the first time, Ken and I are doing the whale thing. We spent two weeks here in December and will be here all January and February, finally returning March 5th. We have never been here for such a long time and perhaps we won't like it. But we will enjoy avoiding the ice and snow and cold weather. Ken's observation that we are both better at doing nothing is accurate, but I am not so sure. We will see.
So far we have been here four days. Time is so relative. It seems like we have been here a month. I have already read two full books but we have yet to go to the grocery store. We are both recovering from an infection we picked up in Texas so are staying close to home, just eating out at close to home restaurants. This year is an experiment on living here in Mexico for two full months. I'll let you know how it goes.
