My Bum in the Sun

One of the first rules you hear about in Mexico is don..t drink the water. One of the second rules probably might be: don..t eat sushi in ....Mexico..... We just went to Senor Sushi..s. The only one I could talk into going with me was Derrick, and he swears it will be the last crazy food expedition he will ever go on with me (that goes against his gut instinct) if we both end up sick tonight with food poisoning. The Miso soup was to DIE for. I took pictures, don..t you worry.
The thing is, that while I love ..Mexico.. (more specifically I love ME in ....Mexico....), I can not tolerate the food down here very well. Every time we eat out I get semi-sick. We have spent most of the week shopping for groceries and just eating at home for that very reason. I have eaten real Mexican fare exactly two times here, and both times my stomach was not loving me. We actually ate at a Burger King here. How lame is that? I even hate that place in the states. ....

We went deep sea fishing Thursday. It was a first for me. We caught a lot of "little" Bonitas (actually they were around 14 or ..15 inches..), and then David Jr. and Sr. both reeled in one Mahi Mahi each. They are BEAUTIFUL. They are BIG. They were both at least three or four feet long. I caught one of the Bonitas and then retired to the top of the boat where I drank a lot of beer and fell asleep in the sun. I burned quite nicely, especially my legs, and more specifically my knees. Ow!....

Besides all that, there has been a lot of bumming around in the sun. There was more going on at the beach today since it is Saturday. There was even a guy selling homemade ice cream cones! The only thing that would make it more perfect is if all my amigas were here to enjoy it with me. Miss you guys. Our time is almost up here. We are flying back on Tuesday, so I better finish soaking up the sun while I can.....
