Time to go home....

We fly back to California today.  It seems very strange. We have been in San Miguel for 7 weeks and before we left, were both apprehensive about being away from home for so long.

But we have truly loved it.  San Miguel De Allende is a wonderful town.  We have always felt so safe here - and within a very short amount of time, felt "at home".

We've tried so many new things from different classes, to horse riding, to new places, to acupuncture, to new foods, to different types of tequila, to...... We've enjoyed gorgeous sunny weather and met some wonderful people.

It is sad that it is coming to an end, but I know it'll also feel good to be home and I'll get to see Harold my parrot again!

Don't be put off by all the bad press Mexico has - there are some real treasures of towns here - well worth exploring. 

The photos today are collages of a few of my favorites photos from this trip.  I hope you've enjoyed following along with our adventure!  Somehow, I think we'll be back :-D

Flying home today

All being well, we'll be flying back home today......back to the clement weather of northern California, away from the cold and snow.....back to Harold......back to my studio......back to the vineyard and wine country...


We've had a great time catching up with everyone, but I have to say the snow did mean we missed out on seeing some people which was disappointing. But we still drove around quite a lot - north to Lincoln, west to Cardiff, east to Croxley and London....


It's always mixed emotions when we leave....happy to be going home but sad to be leaving family and friends here....
