Today was a really, really, REALLY great day. Discounting the part of being kidnapped and held for ransom, it was all really okay! Many of you are aware that I have lived an extraordinary life, and that I consider myself quite the story teller. Well, today was just another chapter in the book of really very entertaining short stories. Interesting and entertaining stories do not need to be long and drawn out, short and quick to the punch line is better, ALWAYS! Okay, so here is the abridged version: We left for our property tours in Costa Maya and ran into problems with unionized cab drivers and our bus driver. We ended up taking cabs to our bus, at which time we were told the cab rides were $200US for each of the 13 cabs. The distance was about 3 or 4 miles, and we thought $120 was somewhat egregious, but they insisted. The folks in charged negotiated the fee down to $120 per cab, and then it was kind of a stalemate. To make this long story short, they settled for $20 per cab, and we were released to go on, but caution prevailed, and we returned to the port on the bus. There is a lot more to this story, but it is late and I am ready to go to sleep.BUT, it did make for a great afternoon. I ended up having lunch with some really great friends, and we all laughed and had a great time, and that great time lasted well into the evening, and into the next day.
Good night!
Deeds, Actions, Changes, PAYOFFS, Kindnesses, Whirled Peas, FUN!
