In Last Vegas, pathetic retirees Morgan Freeman, Michael Douglas, Kevin Kline and Robert DeNiro run off to gamble and flirt. Why are terrible movies so good on the ADO buses in Mexico? It’s not the dubbing into Spanish–terrible Mexican movies are great on the ADO, too. We took the four-plus hours and two-plus movies bus from Oaxaca to Puebla before the New Year to meet our East Tennessee friends Ann and Bill. A few days later we moved to Cholula nearby, site of a giant, mostly unexcavated pyramid with a church on top.

Christine–it doesn’t remind you of our pal Alan Cumming?
We are both much better, though sometimes we do little hacking cough duets. They call flu La Gripe here.
The reason why Bill did not get ill is because when the rest of you weren’t looking he prayed to Nuesta Princesa del Globo de color Rosa. (Our Princess of the Pink Balloon is the patron saint of flu prevention— I read it in Lonely Planet.) Thank you for the sunset and faces and kites.
Fantastic pictures, Pat! Happy New Year.

The “distinguished face” looks like Nick Nolte. Anyway, hope you are feeling better.

Great photographs. Good to hear there is no more La Gripe among you. The princess nestled with the princess, how sweet. Happy New Year.

Bill swore he didn’t get the flu because he gargled with salt water. Maybe that plus a few Hail Disney Princesses.

My favorite post yet, though I have to question that statement as soon as it appears.
