Our feet are back on American soil! We made it back in one piece, didn’t have our identities stolen, and were never even kidnapped! Not even once!
Our final week in Zirajuen mostly consisted of spring-time activities. Clearing flower beds, planting bulbs, and preparing Easter feasts. We even got a little Easter Surprise that delighted Julia immensely. After over a month of sitting, one of the ducks on the farm hatched 8 little ducklings! They were bright yellow, and fluffy as can be. We created a private little apartment for “Mommy” and provided her with all the necessities. Julia loved to just sit and fawn over them. And so did other barnyard friends! As we watched the yellow mound grow in size, a little barn mouse arrived to see what all the
commotion was. He sat and investigated for a while, and I agreed when Julia said it felt kinda like Charlotte’s Web.Monday morning we departed, said our farewells, and took a bus out of Uruapan. It was only a 4 hour bus ride, but I will readily admit my joy at never being forced to watch a Spanish dubbed “Shrek 3” again. The movies they force you to listen to on the “first class” busses are not my cup of tea.
We spent two days in the costal town of Zihuatanejo. It was a clean, picturesque beach city with cantinas on every corner and tourists on every sidewalk. We like it much better than Puerto Vallarta. Our Hostel was the Rincon de Viajero, just five minutes from the bay. We enjoyed a relaxing day at the beach for our final day in Mexico. We snorkeled, drank pina coladas, and had dinner at a beautiful restaurant as the sun set. In the morning we packed our belongings, walked across the windy tarmac and completed our long, wonderful, exhausting journey.
Our Mexican travels are finally at a close. We were there for 82 days. We’ve spent time in 5 states, and 11 cities! It’s been an amazing journey, and it’s been great to have you along with us. Sharing our photos, our stories, and our experiences with you has been a vital part of this time. Until our next adventure, Vaya con Dios!
Mucho amor, felicidades, y salud,
Philip & Julia
