OUR UNEXPECTED PLEASURE

Walking back to the hotel from our noon coffee, a gentleman asked if we spoke English and introduced himself to us. He is Jose and he once worked at Anthony's in Kirkland. Only a few months because he missed his wife and family. His English is quite good. This is Ash Wednesday and even though he would be celebrating with his family, he generously invited us to his home. We met his lovely wife, his beautiful daughter who is going to university, and two of his cousins. I can't think of a better way to end our visit here in Fortin de las Flores. Jose and his family and warm welcome symbolize the goodness of the Mexican people. Thank you Jose.

Tomorrow we leave Fortin to continue our adventures in the state of Chiapas!
