Completely transported to someplace warm and sunny but refreshingly cooler than the triple digits I seek to hide from this afternoon. Thnx!
Glad to help!
I just arrived back to Mexico City after visiting Philly and NYC and it was hotter there than it is here! My flight back to Mexico stopped in Dallas where it was 106 degrees outside. I couldn’t believe it!
Looks like a great time in beautiful weather. It’s pretty chilly where I live in Northern California. Nice pic!
Thanks! Puerto Escondido is lovely and the winter months are the best time to visit!
What a fun looking shot!
Thanks for posting to Travel Photo Thursday!
I’m glad you enjoyed it and happy to participate!
Looks wonderful, Laura! I hope you’ve had a lot of time to spend in such a fashion!
Thanks Alison! I make it a point to try and attend festivals and celebrations as often as possible — they’re always so interesting and a lot of fun too!
That looks amazing! What a great idea!
I want to be in that picture!
Me too! I could use an escape about now.
