R&R and a team open heat - Mexico Day 12

All was quiet, not even a mouse stirred as we lay in having a "well earned" well at least needed rest as the sun came up.  )  Things began to stir as Gordon arrived and coaxed grant into action to send the organisers an email of formal complaint on his Day Two score.

The rest of us appeared one by one and Steve B set something going on the stove which seemed to involve a lot of sieving and boiling, looked a bit like the inside of a babies nappy by the time he had finished.  Carl was in harness fixing/ drying mode after a camel back blow out yesterday and then moved onto a bit of domestic housework with a broom, very impressive.


The Bat Harness dries out


window shopping, nice boats


he only popped in to buy some bread

With everyone sorted  we went our separate ways, Steve and Gordon opting for massages, Wayne and Grant off to see the Monarch Butterflies who live up near one of the turn points in their millions, Carl pottering about and Kaz and myself a spot of fishing in the lake and a bit of window shopping.



Boat picking


 fancy one of these at the bottom of your garden ?

We all returned safe and sound with Gordon feeling very relaxed if a little excited, lucky it was only an hours worth, and lucky he is not 30 years younger, age has it's benefits.  Steve in zone Steve mellow and chilled. Wayne and Grant (particularly Grant) buzzing about the Butterflies which did sound pretty impressive and looked amazing on his video.


Tea not to be :)

We had a fun time fishing and caught supper but gave it a break and let it go for another day and Carl caught up on some more zzzzzzz's


Titanic sets sail

Team bonding started with a boat trip on a speed boat to see Valle de Bravo from the water. It is amazing the wealth that resides around the lake with houses and hotels down to the waters edge and then back up in to the hill side. Boats , more boats and microlight sea planes it is all here and going on.  The speed boat was nice but not very speedy as they are limited to slow when on tour still at least no one fell off.

Posh places


Happy sailors


Grant wants one

Some puppy training and a fashion shoot back on dry land then back to the house for a team chat and open heart session, lets see if it helps tomorrow ;)  The Moyes boys head off for a Moyes meal in uniform and the house goes quiet again.  wayne joins Kaz and myself for a super steak out, the best since we have been here and we put the world to right between us.


the lost boys and girl

Everyone is back for a relatively early night in preparation for the final phase, can we pull our socks up and pick up the pace, we shall see

Glad to see you are having a bit of a holiday too. The fish don't measure up to those Cornish sea bass though...
