¡Hola! from San Miguel!

Lynne Robinson, Hewitt, New Jersey

We are having a wonderful time so far in this quaint, charming town. Our trip was uneventful and on half empty aircraft. There are very few signs of panic about the swine flu; very few masks being worn except in the restaurants by the staff. The town is bustling with activity and even the Tuesday market was open although we had heard it was not going to be.

We’ve walked and walked on rocky cobblestone streets past colorful houses. We’ve eaten in wonderful restaurants with inexpensive prices.

It’s strange to hear so much English being spoken around you. So many Americans and Canadians!

I am beginning to smell the armotic breakfast (I think it’s rolled chicken enchiladas today) that Raquel is cooking below, so I’ll sign off for now and send this later when we go over to Rick’s cousins to use their connection.

Glad you travel went smoothly and you are having a good time!

What a fabulous picture! Wow. You do get around, girl!
