Damien and crew got to our house around 11:30 to drop off the equipment we rented them before they drove to the airport to fly home. We had a bit of a chat then off they went and in we went to finish waking up.

Once awake, showered and stuff we drove to the church to drop off some stuff that we cleaned out of the band room, including the 2 very large jars of peanut butter that Ross had bought that I don’t like, then to the banner place to get a factura (invoice) for the banner they made us for movie night so John and Christie can write it off as a donation to Amigos de Bucerias (we paid for it, but they needed the expense so they gave us the money). Then to our favorite Pharmacia for some pills for Ross and another inhaler for me, then we drove to John’s to drop off the factura, then Christie and their youngest drove to the municipal building (we followed) so we can finally pay our taxes. I paid 499 pesos for each of our properties. We noticed that we had parked behind Mike’s car (there aren’t too many Alberta plates in Bucerias) so Ross called him and we met up with him and another couple of friends on the beach for a cerveza. After a short chat and having an older Mexican guy sing you a Rod Stewart song (go figure) we left to pick up some cheap wine for me then back home for a bit then off to Vallarta to get another drum head to replace the one at Nelly’s that Ross trashed.

The music store had a really cheap one, we have to go back in a couple of weeks for the one that Ross wants, so we got that then drove to Costco for a hot dog, I had a piece of pizza and I stocked up on cerveza’s for Yvonne’s visit. Then back to Nuevo for Ross’s 6pm meeting. I went to the market to get another couple of neoprene can holders (I have no idea where they go), a box of Triscuit’s and a couple of onion soup mixes to make chip dip. I met up with Ross and another guy in the parkade (the other guy is just visiting and we drove him back to his hotel) then drove home.
I am uploading some pictures as I write this so I can use my shutterfly account to post pictures as my blog is not co-operating! I will post the link and imbed it in the blog when I add something. I am uploading some wedding stuff too so it will take me a bit to get it all done,

So we are just lying around now, we have to get up early for work tomorrow so we don’t want to stay up too late.
