Parents went crazy with the sign!!

I was greeted this morning by this photo from my parents... which was great, but they have continued with the trend...

Now my Aunt is in on it
As are my grandparents
And they have even recruited my cat to get in on the action... this is where it may have gone overboard, but I figure since I put my parents up online I should put these pics up as well. Hopefully I won't get too many more before the day is over.

Birthday Love from West Virginia

I awoke this morning to find in my email a photo from my parents that serves as an ecard.

I did splotch-out the age because I still contest that I am roughly eleven-years-old.

Still in Acapulco with the Fam

Having met up with parents in Acapulco is still a shock to my system. My days have slowed down drastically from the pace of hosteling around the world. With nothing to do with my days I spend my time on the beach, at the pool, and eating anything I can get my hands on.

This is how I travel when all of us go out. 7 pack into a small car which is ironic because in the US, Mexicans travel 7 deep in the car but here it is the gringos.


Here is a shot of the Grand Mayan Resort here in Acapulco.


This is how I spend my days. The surf has been breaking funny here recently so no time attempting to surf.

Cliff Divers and Food in Acapulco

The other night we went out to a restaurant here in Acapulco that used to host John Wayne and a slew of stars from that era. There are bungalows there that they used to stay in that overlook the water from up on the cliff. Here is a shot of the parents and I catching the sunset.


After dinner we went to the cliffs nearby to watch local cliffdivers do their thing. Sadly, they have a union in Acapulco that prohibits others from diving so I had to take the role of spectator for this show. Next time I find cliffs I am jumping, only not in a speedo.
