Mad and Kate at Woody's

Yesterday was filled with several nice small things.  But the highlight was definitely my evening at Woody's with Kate. 

I really like the days here.  There are so many things to do. Yesterday was especially nice in that way.  I went for a bike ride towards the south to scout out a potential snorkeling site where I saw two iguanas sunning themselves - always fun!  On my way back, I stopped at a little beach to just stick my feet in the water and enjoy the view.  Then, Chris and I went for a mini swim, my first since I've gotten sick, and her first since her medicine troubles.  I think it made us both feel especially good.


But the evenings have a certain magic feeling.  There's a certain calmness and there are sparkly lights.  I enjoy riding my bike and walking around by myself.  But I was really happy that a woman named Kate chose to share yesterday evening with me.  She's Chris' very good friend, who's visiting Cozumel for just a short time.  She was going to walk downtown yesterday evening.  So I told her about Pako and Woody's, and offered to meet her there after my class.  I was very glad that she did.  The night air was perfect.  Pako was charming, as usual.  And we had a very touching conversation with Nelly, Woody's owner. I had never chatted with her before.  But Kate said hello, and Nelly shared the sad story of her son's recent death.  I'm glad she felt able to share.
