By February 2009 we had already been living in Ixtapaluca for several months. We haven’t been back to visit Cuernavaca many times, but 10 years ago today we had the privilege to visit some friends in the city.
Here we are with Osvaldo’s family – Osvaldo, Vero, and their daughter Pamela (their son was away with the youth group). I think we might have met at one of our favourite restaurants, Don Pollo (great roasted chicken).
Just before we moved out of our house in Cuernavaca, I took a panoramic shot of from the roof. The service I used is no longer available, so I found a new one so you can see it. It’s probably best if you go “full screen” on this one. You can also “hide controls” so you don’t have all the tech-clutter in your way.
It was a proud moment when, ten years ago today, Hannah had the honour of being the flag bearer at her school, Colegio del Bosque in Cuernavaca. Here she is, getting ready to lead the procession!
10 years ago today! We were hanging out at the Casteel’s “castle” in Cuernavaca, and here are some of the people we were hanging out with – Gary and Kim Lidstone! The Lidstones were in Cuernavaca from Canada, working on their Spanish for a little while. If I remember correctly, this was just before they returned to Canada.
This little picture of Gary (above right) is a bonus, from the same day. Whatcha doin’, Gary?
Ok, actually the day before Independence Day. This photo was taken ten years ago today, when we were celebrating with some people from the church in Cuernavaca at Toby and Marilyn Casteel’s house. That was one full house!
One bonus retro picture for this month. This picture was taken ten years ago today in Cuernavaca. I believe these gals were out celebrating Michelle O’Brien’s birthday. So, from left to right…
