Not much to report on this trip

Sorry - but nothing special happened on this trip (Jan-April 2024), and so i did not post anyhting. I did not have a bike and thus could not move a round very much. The Pickleball courts were just 5 min away from Joan's house, and I played regularly. But my knee hurt after that so that I did not even walk around in the neighborhood a lot, except to go to the Mercado for food. I tried to go swimming to the Olympic Pool, as during the last visit before the Pandemic, but i found that my knee prostheses gave me trouble with this. Maybe I will be more enterprising when I travel there again - and in that case i should buy an ebike so i can move about more.... Philip's visit for a week was a nice interlude. The new clean apartment in the house should be inviting to all of the family. One small problem was that the Peso had gained significantly in value (or, better said, the Canadian Dollar has beeen tankink?), making Mexico a somewhat lesser attraction for "cheap" vacationing.

Mazatlan 2024

BACK IN MAZATLAN! After a few years of Pandemic, knee operations, other issues and two winters at Shutty bench - I returned to Mazatlan in January 2024, staying at Joan and Randy's house, where the upper floor now is fnished and serves as my residence for 3 months. BUT - this time I have no bike and am somewhat lazy moving around the city and the area, and so I have less to report. The Malecon, parts of which were under construction last time I was here, has been finished and is busy as ever. So I want to show you at least some of the scene agagin, this time listening to one crazy band producing a somewhat polyfonic noise at one of the beach-side palapas.

HOPLA: This time the blogspotsysytem refused to upload the video from my drive, forcing me to go via a YouTube upload. And that forced me to have an advertizing in the video - not my intent! Have to figure this out: did Google make chang es and force you to all this???
