Hide-And-Go-Seek
The rain started while we were watching an incredible Iranian film at the Lake Chapala Society. When we emerged, the rain was a surprise, even though we’d been warned about the big tropical storm about to hit–a long arm of Hurricane Patricia that is predicted to arrive with full force at midnight tomorrow. I have started to prepare–butane camp cooker, bottles of water freezing in the freezer, candles and oil lamps out, cooking food ahead as I’m about out of gas and I know I have a gas leak. How could I use $200 worth of gas in three weeks?
Anyway, we decided to be kids and enjoy the block long walk to the car in the rain and were rewarded, when we ducked under cover of the little outside restaurant that was halfway to the gate of LCS, with a view of an incredible orchid tree. (My name. I don’t know what it is.) An added bonus was that I was under the cover of the roof of the open air little restaurant and so I didn’t have to risk getting my lens wet.
It was only after I got home and started playing with the pictures that I spied the various little characters hidden in the flowers. See if you can find them.
Can you find the koala bear? Some may think he has more in common with a polar bear.
Mr. Frog is enjoying the rain.
Little bird is hungry, but old grandfather mouse is just wet and disgusted.

Do they look like luscious chocolates and macaroons? Wrong. They are sweet potato balls brought to a friend’s Thanksgiving feast…rolled in coconut or pecans and brown sugar. Yes, they were delicious!!!
This pancake breakfast ordered by a friend at Martha’s Cafe in Ajijic was as good as it looks. Proof below:
But, the shocker was that the oatmeal I ordered was just as good! I was too hungry to get a picture of it. Guess I’ll have to go back to prove it to you!!!
