Magpie Tales #228

Image provided by Tess Kincaid


Once new and fresh
High hopes for the future
Worn by threadbare decisions
 ~~
Step lightly
Don't tread on me
These are not the stairs to heaven
~~
This week's image was a challenge.
You choose which one you like.
Meanwhile step over here 
and read what others write.

A Typical Day Being a Tourist in Zihuatanejo

Russell always takes a photo of the floral decoration left for us by
the woman who cleans our room every day.....
Our days consist of eating a good breakfast of fruit, juice, coffee, rolls and
sometimes pancakes or eggs.
Then it's off to the beaach to swim, body surf if the waves are big enough, visit with
friends, watch the vendors ply their wares, take walks, look at interesting shells or
dead things washed up on the beach, read, sleep, and take photos of friends who are
leaving and going home........then it's back up all those stairs (202) to shower
and then make the huge decision of where to go for dinner. We usually take the
little combi bus to downtown, have a beer at a little bar and then
have dinner at one of the many little places. We try to go to different ones as you
never know what might be even better than the day before.....
Afterwards we wander around a bit before getting a cab ($3) back to our hotel
where we read and then once again....SNOOZE.
