The first time I got my hair cut in Cozumel, it was a real adventure. I got a reference for a hairdresser from a friend, found the place, asked for a trim in my best Spanish, and lost over 4 inches of length to my hair....luckily, I actually liked the result. And it grows back....
This year, it was still a bit of an adventure. Which is fun. But I felt pretty sure the results were what I wanted. Because my Spanish is better. And I went back to Dona Lety who cut my hair last year and is a lovely lady.
Last year, she and I chatted, each using our best language skills, while she slowly worked on me. This year, it was fun to listen to her and another customer chat away, at almost lighting speed. I caught about 30-40% of what they were saying. Including a very silly story about how someone's dog who has the same name as the customer, and the customer was all confused about who was calling him. I think a parrot was involved too. But I'm not so sure about that part. No matter. They laughed. I laughed even harder. It was just so fun to be part of that little scene.
Pictures

3) Norm from Ennis Montana. He and his girlfriend Terri were a lot of fun. Norm doesn't like having his picture taken. But he agreed to model his cool shirt for me!
