Goodbye Parties and Thoughts of Returning

We made a trip to Guadalajara to spend a morning with Steve, Cuqui, Lupita and Mrs. Torres. We have enjoyed so much our time with them and have learned a lot of Espanol too. We went to a very lovely restaurant for breakfast and then to Lupita's home to see her art. She is more fantastic than she knows and I hope that in the near future she will have an exhibit so that many more people can appreciate her work.
On the trip back, we went again thru Jocotepec. We hoped to be adventurous and have a bowl of birria (goat stew). Well, we just forgot that it was Friday and all of the places usually serving it were not. Jocotepec is a very Mexican and Catholic little town.
So, we stopped instead at a tourist place in a Balneario in San Juan Cosala and had our lunch. That place is a maze of pools of varying degrees and on Friday just chock full of little children. They also have all of the spa things-massages etc. I have been told its great. Just another treat waiting for next time.
Warmer weather is here. The mornings are still just perfect and if you walk in the shade so is the rest of the day but it gets up to over 72. The evenings are balmy so that's great.
We have looked at several places to rent but will see about what's happening at home before deciding what we will try next year.
Tomorrow we will go on an art walk and take in another good bye dinner - love it - Yep, we will miss this place and everyone here.
