La gripa is a catch-all phrase used in Mexico for colds and flu. It may or may not include fever and/or the usual symptoms. Mine isn’t serious, no fever, but enough to not feel much like blogging. Also we had a big rain storm last night which took out the electricity until minutes ago. Say no more.
Ours was a whirlwind trip from southern Mexico to Northern California and back. Extenuating circumstances prevented visiting friends and sightseeing. Mostly it was gas, pee, eat, sleep, drive, repeat and not necessarily in that order.
Once through the mountains of central Mexico, the temperature changed quickly and we were pulling out the shorts. Almost there.
Home sweet home Bacalar. We are recovering from a strenuous trip and bouts of gripa. Lots of fluids, garlic soup and rest. We’re glad to see our puppy who doubled in size while we were gone.
Happy holidays to you and yours from DOS TORTAS
Happy holidays! 😊

Lo siento por la gripa. I had a run in with el dengue fever, and it is NOT fun. Protect yourselves!
Glad you are home. That garlic soup will cure you, for sure!

Thanks Emilie. I just got run down. Drinking lots of hot tea, lime & honey. Rest is the answer.
