Last Day....

This is it, the last day of my adventure in Mexico. I'm a little sad....

The last few days have been very domestic.  I've done school work, painted, exercised, swam, practiced my Spanish with lifeguards (a captive audience...), and walked a lot!

The beach here is very long (over 1 km?) and inviting to walk along.  There is also a long (over 1 km?) pedestrian mall with shops and restaurants all along it.  I've walked along both several times. My feet and legs are beat!

I've also been slighlty out of control on the pedestrian mall.  I bought 2 sun dresses and another painting! 

The sundresses have a bit of a funny story.  In a side street shop, there was a brown dress in my size and the same dress in green but too small.  I liked the green one more, but bought the brown one, cause it fit....Then, i saw the same green dress in another shop, in my size!  I took it, and other dresses into the fitting room, including a fun orange stripe dress.  I took the tag off the brown dress, in my shopping bag, which was in my shopping bag.  I came out, bought the orange stripe dress, and told the sales lady I bought the brown dress, in that shop, the day before, but that I prefferred the green dress.  Could I exchange it?  She said yes! Yeah!  Especially because the side street shop was charging way less for the dress!
