Back Home in Seattle

I have to say, it did feel good to step off the plane to the cold chill and rain. Though I was just as happy when I landed in Puerto Vallarta leaving the cold and rain behind.

There were some last minute good byes and details that I needed to accomplished prior to leaving for the airport. Stopped by our dear friend Alfredo's office to say "adios" and off to the hardware store to purchase new locks.

The hardware store visit was ...well...interesting. They had what we needed, but in order to get to it I had to skirt the piles of dog poop that was in numerous places on the floor. Strange thing was that I didn't see a dog.

Well, locks in hand and no dog poop on my shoes, it was back to Casa Leo to pack, eat the last of the avocados and mangos and start closing up the house. Laundry done, luggage ready to go, I was good to go and be picked up.

Getting to the airport almost 3 hours early, wasn't bad. Read my book, had a bite to eat and kicked back. The plane was full...full...FULL. First time I ever heard someone tell another passenger that they would pay them not to sit next to them.  Lots of babies on this flight and at various points of the trip, it smelled like I was flying in a diaper pale.

But, thanks to Apple and the magic of the iPod, I was able to muffle the noise.  And thanks to our good folks at Bombay their gin helped to remove the smell of the dirty diapers.

My trip was nothing left than amazing.  I look back with appreciation that I was given the time to enjoy our little paradiase in PV.
