Reasons to Celebrate

What a week we have had. Our guests from North Carolina, Gary and Sue have been very busy looking for thier own base of operations and settled on Thursday with a very nice house just down the street from us. We are learning the buses and the Monay shopping center together.

We went for a celebration dinner at Mangire Bene (Estevez de Toral 8-91 y Bolívar). Great lasagna! They will move in on Monday, a pretty easy move with just suitcases to roll down the street!


The weather has been mild with sunny mornings and rain in the afternoon. Today, Saturday, was especially nice in the morning so off we went to downtown to pick up my replacement laptop and enjoy the sun. Had a great pizza for lunch, stopped at the Panadería (bakery) and then Jack sat in the Parque while I ran to the tourist office for a bus map, then to the plaza to get a new poncho, stopping for flowers at the flower market. Jack owed me two bunches ($2) as the deal when we decided to move to Cuenca was I would get flowers every week . . . you gotta love it here!



Home by cab, Jack and Iggy are napping and I am typing as the rain falls! Sorry no nap picture - but can you hear the snoring? Not sure why the blog spell checker has suddenly decided that it should check this all in Spanish . . . oh well. Chao for now!
