Fishing Hole Too

 Here we are having a great visit with Zihua friends.



Shimia

One of our favourite places to eat in Zihua is a small restaurant called Shimia, run by an Italian couple. The food and service rise above other restaurants. The menu is small but every dish is delicious!


 

Day of the Dead

 We missed Day of the Dead, but the decorations for the celebration honouring family members that have died were still up.






Vancouver...After the Long Flight Back to Canada

 We spent one night in Vancouver before heading south to Zihua, and of course we ate dinner at our favourite restaurant, the Cactus Club Cafe. 


                         We have never been disappointed with our meals....or the wine!

Good-Bye Australia

 Our time in Mullaloo has come to an end. We will miss Catlin and Jess and the grandkids tremendously and look forward to summer of 2025 when they will be home for close to a month.


Hello Zihua...we will see you shortly!

Booker's Birthday

 We celebrated Booker's 2nd birthday a week early. Friends of Catlin and Jess, who are expecting their first child, came over to participate in the celebration! 












Halloween Fun

 Halloween is similar in Australia as it is in Canada, but not with so much fan fair. The kids carved pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns, dressed up in costumes and went into a neighbourhood that participated in the handing out of candy. Homeowners sat outside with baskets of candies and adult beverages in hand, enjoying the comings and goings of each group of children. Parents and grandparents, many in costume, walked behind their kids with their own refreshments. We had a lot of fun!
