http://weimag2.blogspot.com/2010/02/2002-la-laguna-to-guanajuato.html
Travels of Chris and Irene. Wednesday, February 3, 2010. 2002 La Laguna to Guanajuato. We are into our final month in Mexico and we plan to cross into the USA on March 22 as that is the weekend before Easter Holy Week. In Mexico it is called Semana Santa and it is a huge travel and fiesta time. We usually plan to be off the roads during the Holiday as it is too busy and too much chance of accident.

Travels of Chris and Irene: 2002 Emerald Coast Mexico
http://weimag2.blogspot.com/2010/02/2002-emerald-coast-mexico.html
Travels of Chris and Irene. Wednesday, February 3, 2010. 2002 Emerald Coast Mexico. That is enough about the weather. We just finished spending a day at the Totonac Ruins of El Tajin. It is a small area in comparison to the famous Chichen Itza and Uxmal Ruins in the Yucatan, but has a "small town" feel about it. It is beautiful and extremely well maintained.

Travels of Chris and Irene. Wednesday, February 3, 2010. 2002 Guanajuato to Cuidad Valles and Tamosopo. Our time in Mexico is rapidly coming to a close. We are currently in Cuidad Valles and at a Balneario (Hot springs) just south of town called El Banito. We have been here for a couple of days enjoying the pools and the 35' C weather. It is almost too hot and it is time to move north. Our next major stop will be McAllan, Texas where we hope to meet up with friends, George and Carolyn from Winnipeg.

Travels of Chris and Irene. Wednesday, February 3, 2010. After spending almost two week travelling to Vancouver and visiting with relatives we are now in Sydney.

We picked up our camper - a Toyoto the size of a VW about a week ago - travelling north from Sydney. Driving on the left is one thing but why do they have the turn signal lever on the righ...

Travels of Chris and Irene: 2004 View of Australia
http://weimag2.blogspot.com/2010/02/2004-view-of-australia.html
Travels of Chris and Irene. Wednesday, February 3, 2010. 2004 View of Australia. AUSTRALIA – DOWN UNDER BUT ALSO DIFFERENT! 1There is virtually no graffiti – North American culture has not extended to this art form. 2Toilets have full or half flush handle settings. 3Sunrises in the east and at noon it goes north and sets in the west. Very disconcerting for orientation. 4Wombats, Kangaroos, Wallabys, Koalas. Which of them make good sausages? Here are some of the posted signs that we saw:. 2Sign in grocery...

Travels of Chris and Irene: 2003 Dengue Fever, Alamos, Mexico
http://weimag2.blogspot.com/2010/02/2003-dengue-fever-alamos-mexico.html
Travels of Chris and Irene. Wednesday, February 3, 2010. 2003 Dengue Fever, Alamos, Mexico. There is a lot of information available about Dengue fever on the Internet. It is a malaria virus and it does take some time to get your energy back to normal. Up to the time of Dengue we had been playing tennis 3 times a week with our friend, Jinny Combs, biking out to see the Thompsons, walking the arroyos birding. Now it is reading and taking life easy.
