January 20, 2016. Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico. Nip and Tuck.

They made it but it was nip and tuck for a while as to whether or not they could come.  But they are here.  Their path brought them from Ottawa to Toronto on Monday by car.  After a day of rest with Randy and Gaby,   they flew to Detroit,  then on to Puerto Vallarta direct.   They actually arrived early.  By 2:00 Rita and Ian walked into our condominium.   We were delighted to see them.

Rita is wearing a fancy air cast so she is able to bear weight but is not supposed to walk far.  In the airports, she used a wheel chair,  and discovered the joy of being wheeled to the front of the lines.  Ian thinks she might need  to keep that cast!!  I borrowed a wheelchair from the condo for Rita to use if we want to walk out to lunch or dinner, or to have Rita shop at  the Farmer's Market, which was a big hit last year.  The day of travel is difficult.  Fatigue is always with you until you get that first good night's sleep.   Both Rita and Ian look great but tomorrow they will both feel better.

The 6 of us watched the sun fall off the edge of the Pacific Ocean while sitting on the balcony.  And we discussed the temperatures in Ottawa, Toronto and Harper, Texas.    The warm air felt even better.
