With a Mexican Admiral, Rear Admiral Uribe. The Mexican Navy have been wonderful hosts. They host us for lunch, which is excellent, and has little in common, except in generalities, with what passes for Mexican food back home. Some nice *hot* stuff. And guacamole to die for. And, as Ward found out... some verra nice ladies. (No, SWWBO, I didn't win anything at the raffle, so I am still chaste) Anyway, Captain Jimenez is eager to show us the good side... http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/07/walk_on_a_romantic_beach_while_bringing_home_the_rodgers.html http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/07/walk_on_a_romantic_beach_while_bringing_home_the_rodgers.html Fri, 28 Jul 2006 21:01:03 -0600 Great stuff!

Lauderdale when I was a child. A whole pile of family was visiting, and Grandpa came in and woke us all up to go watch the event. He even sat each of us little ones on the turtle's back for a moment - she was oblivious, of course. Thanks for the reminder :-) ]]> http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/07/walk_on_a_romantic_beach_while_bringing_home_the_rodgers.html#comment-48451 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/07/walk_on_a_romantic_beach_while_bringing_home_the_rodgers.html#comment-48451 Sat, 29 Jul 2006 10:31:52 -0600 That's you in the third picture? His wife kicked your butt too? Gee that's not good for the ego. Please tell me the turtles didn't outpace you. Ok I better stop now. Like I can talk anyway. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/07/walk_on_a_romantic_beach_while_bringing_home_the_rodgers.html#comment-48449 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/07/walk_on_a_romantic_beach_while_bringing_home_the_rodgers.html#comment-48449 Sat, 29 Jul 2006 08:14:10 -0600
