Day 158

Happy Father’s Day to my father and all of my close friends and family who are fathers. Today I woke up to one of my children twisting a balloon around to spell “DAD”. The noise was ear piercing, but after listening to that for 20 minutes, he left my bedroom and our youngest screamed at someone for no apparent reason. I kept my eyes closed the entire time and actually fell back asleep for half an hour. This is the one day I can sleep in as long as I want without any resentment from my bride.

Since we didn’t do that much yesterday, today we wanted to top the day before and we flew to the Yucatan to spend the next two weeks. We planned the trip before I flew home in early June.

While at the airport in the town we have been living in, we decided to eat lunch before going through security. I said something to my daughter and she gave me this look that her mom gives me a few dozen times a day. The look can be translated to mean “really??!?”


We wanted to go to the Yucatan the entire time we’ve been in Mexico. We decided the best thing to do is rent a house from Airbnb and just hang out in the house the entire time. We aren’t going to leave except to go to the grocery store.


The airport and every airline is very strict. You need to have a mask on at all times except when you are eating or drinking. We took two flights today. One to Monterey and the next to Mérida. The second flight had perfect air conditioning. The outside was so warm and the inside of the airplane was so cold as you boarded, that you could see the vapor from from the air conditioning unit throughout the entire plane.

The flights were fine, and the kids were very well behaved. We stay in a house in Mérida for the next two days, then we drive to a beach house and stay there until July 4.

We are now at the first house and are about to get an Uber eats delivery of a LOT of tacos. It’s gonna be a good two weeks. *😀

Im kind of ashamed of myself after how much I just ate.
