With this image of the papaya tree (boasting its first fruit) planted by the previous awesome tenants, I say hello to our new home in Coatepec :)
Exhausted after a day of moving, I had an excellent night of sleep last night. It is so peaceful, so tranquilo out here. Welcome change from sleeping in a hotel room facing a busy street in town.
Jack made us fresh squeezed o.j. this morning with his super citrus juicer. It was the best we have had yet. Sweet, pulpy- fab meal! We split a cherimoya before heading into town to continue our hunt for furniture. We have our basics (beds and a couch set) but we still need more.
Later in the afternoon, Jack, with a tuff yet lovely girl we hired to help with our transition, left for Xalapa. We have a long list of need now items: glasses, plates, bed sheets, etc. With him gone, I am kickin' it with my fave hip-hop (he's not a fan). We configured two sets of speakers to AirTunes and it sounds wicked in here! The acoustics are incredible thanks to the non carpet floors and spacious front area of the house. I promise pics once we have fully unpacked and settled in.
Aaah, dinner was just delivered. The restaurant called La Papa, next door to our hotel, made us scrummy salads. Now that we have moved, they deliver- $7 for two salads!! So far, not missin the U.S. ;)
