Felice Navidad!
Greetings from salt-encrusted, wind-burnt Venus, from beautiful downtown Bucerias, a fishing town just north of Puerto Vallarta! After the boat ride we took this a.m. out to the Marieta Islands, I even have salt in my ears!
Peak experience … Christmas Eve … barrelling down the "highway" (a paved road with double yellow lines that NO ONE pays attention to even on curves and hills) in the back of a glorified pick-up truck with other "adventurers", slugging back the local tequila and singing Christmas Carols at the top of our lungs. You haven't heard "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" until you have heard it at 60 miles an hour in the tropics …
Life is good … I hope everyone's holiday has been as jolly as mine!

Have a great time (and at least one tequila shot for me!)
[and we'd better not catch you on-line again during your vacation!]

How many calories are there in tequila? Maybe the lime cancels out the calories …

Well, since tequila is plant-based, and the lime is a fruit, it actually sounds pretty healthy to me . . .

The mystery of the Mexican reading Dry Ice's blog has been solved.That ain't no Mexican – that's a tequila-soaked, carol-singing Canadian on vacation! I shoulda known…Lucky you!
