Well, I tried to add pictures to the web album but it is very impossible from the internet cafe so I will need to wait until we get to a hotel where my computer works to upload all the photos. I will put a few photos on the blog for each recent entry but will need to do that on Friday because time is running short today. I do have a bunch of new posts covering our week away from Tetelilla so make sure to check them out. There are a couple pictures but check back Friday night or Saturday for more. I won´t change the text so you can just scan for the pictures.
Our car has decided to stop starting. Luckily we made it all the way back from Acapulco but the very next day when we drove to the next town to visit the internet cafe for an hour we went back to the car and it wouldn´t start. A mechanic cleaned the starter off the next day and it started (Monday) so we drove it home but now we tried to start it today (Wednesday) and it is sitting in his dad´s yard refusing to budge. The mechanic thankfully makes house calls since tow trucks are not easily found here in his town. He thinks it may be the battery, my dad thinks it may be the alternator. Thank goodness for Skype and the internet because I was able to run to the internet cafe and then instant message my dad and tell him to call me on Skype over the internet so we could talk like on the telephone... All that for just a few pesos! Technology is a blessing when travelling and thankfully my dad has become almost as tech savvy as any generation Xer (he just needs to work on the typing speed).
Tomorrow we are going to another water park to take a break from the intense heat. I´ll have some more entries on Friday and an update on our car. Fixing it is very important because we are planning to leave on Monday for our 10 day trip back to the border. Everyone keep us and especially Felipe in your thoughts the next few weeks and send him lots of good vibes, prayers and confidence for his interview on the 17th! We miss everyone and are soooooooo jealous of the snow!

It was so good to hear your voice yesterday as you talked with your dad. I wish you good luck with your car! Gosh, a mechanic that makes house calls. Only in Mexico I guess huh? Your trip sounds like an awesome adventure! I can't wait to hear the rest!
The anonymous comment is mine. Maybe by the time you get back I'll have this blogging thing down! Sending you all our good thoughts and prayers!
