10 years ago – right now – we were at Zoofari, in the state of Morelos. Zoofari, as you might guess, is a safari/zoo/petting zoo type place (Southern Ontarians, think African Lion Safari). Shari’s parents were still here, so we were doing the tourist thing with them!
So it may not be the most interesting picture, but I think it’s a good one, so I’m going with it. You can see some animals in the background, but in the foreground are most definitely two PEOPLE!
A visit from Shari’s parents – Gary and Ardys – 10 years ago! On this day in December 2008, we were trekking around the pyramids at Teotihuacán. Here’s a great picture of the intrepid explorers!
Every year, the Camino Global missionaries of Mexico get together for a few days of teaching and fellowship. That’s what we were up to 10 years ago today.
Someone had organized a family craft time – making “candy houses” (cardboard base – sorry, no gingerbread).
Apparently Hannah and Nathanael were in a patriotic mood that day, as they worked with Cathy Fry, freeing candy canes from their plastic bonds.
Ten years ago today it was Thanksgiving. The bad news is that Nathanael wasn’t feeling very well. The good news was that we got this classic picture of him calmly watching the turkey. This was at home in Ixtapaluca.
Belated happy Thanksgiving to you all! 🙂
10 years ago this month we were having a very patriotic time in Mexico City! It was a part of our orientation time, and Shari and I went to see the Ballet Folklórico, and spent some time exploring downtown Mexico City.
We even got some pictures of the lowing of the flag, right in the zocalo (main downtown square). Here you go…
And here’s a close-up of the above, showing the soldiers doing their job:
If it’s raining, or if there’s a chance of rain, the flag won’t be raised or lowered. The reason being, the flag gets far too heavy to handle – I’m sure you can see why!
Ten years ago today. A new school year was about to begin, and we were in a new city – Ixtapaluca. So, it was time for some paperwork, including new photos of Hannah and Nathanael!
