Today we took the car to the dealership to see what they’d be willing to pay for it. They gave us a surprisingly good offer, and we accepted. We turn the car in Saturday.
This Sunday we fly to the Yucatan, we rented a house right on the beach. All public beaches are closed, but ours is private so we probably won’t see anyone and we also have a swimming pool so the kids are going to be in heaven.
While waiting for the car to be inspected by the dealership, we walked next door to Applebee’s and had lunch. The menu was paired down quite a bit. The kids playground was closed and the kids were not happy about that. They survived though. We wear out masks everywhere we go, we have antibacterial gel and squirt it in the kids hands every few minutes. When we walked into Applebee’s, the hostess took out temperatures with the touch less scanner and squirted antibacterial helps into our hands and had us wash the bottoms of our shoes in a small container before we walked in.
I know plenty of people in the States who are terrified that we are going to get sick here. We are very careful, and where we live, they are not messing around. You can’t even walk into the airport without a mask, they won’t let you in, and the airlines makes wearing a mask at all times on a flight mandatory.
We are planning a busy Saturday I’m not really looking forward to. We have to pick up furniture in the morning that it getting repaired. Our oldest son is turning 9 next month but we are having a zoom party at noon. Then we drive to a party place for the kids to play around in and only our kids. We reserved it for the day. While at the party place, Bonnie will take the car to get turned in, and then come back to the party place. Then afterwards we will walk to Pollo Feliz, the kids favorite restaurant, for dinner.
The next morning we fly to the Yucatan. We really do live our lives without any margins. Hopefully we can relax during our stay at the Yucatan. We plan to just stay in and enjoy the view and the beach.
Bonnie made dinner tonight. I made garlic bread and potatoes. Our youngest helped as well.
Since we’ve been here, we have both tried to get photos of the same thing. People on motorcycles with children. It’s the craziest thing to us. Bonnie got one today of two parents with an infant. And below I got this one from outside our home. *
