Things are coming together

[Steve O]

Only three more weeks to go and things are going good. Had a few phone calls this past week from Cozumel and we found a playpen to use while we are there and have a nanny to chase the kids while we have a cold beverage for $100 pesos a day. Hours 10:00am to 5:00pm. Also purchased all the items we need to bring down. 5 lbs. parmesan cheese, 1 car rotor, 2 jars of Miracle Whip, a few memory chips, 1 chain saw, fishing lures, and some speciality popcorn. Received all the new passports for my girlfriend and her 2 grandkids in 9 days. Car ferry is offering a special for $380 pesos. Driver rides free and passengers are $60 pesos each. Might be a good trip after all if I can get my girlfriend to cut down on her and the kid's luggage. I keep telling myself that it is only a 16 day trip with the rug rats. LOL

Steve O, we don't know each other from Adam, but I live vicariously through your trip reports.

Safe travels amigo.

[FITZ]

Ha! I will still bet this will be THE best trip report ever!!!!
God bless you, Steve.

What more could you need?? You are going to love it! To see Mexico through those young eyes is going to be a trip in itself!

How does one pack a chain saw?

How does one pack a chain saw?

Probably not carry-on....

[Steve O]

They won't let me bring it on as a carry on even though I am not bringing any gas with. I'll just take it out of the box and put it in a suitcase.

Condolences to Steve O, the vagabond, but this just wreaks of a good story. Betting you're gonna have a dirty rotten blast!

Happy days - T.

I think they will choose your suitcase to open when that goes through the x ray.

[Steve O]

You get use to having your suitcase searched. Last time in the states they thought the large jar of pickel relish I was bringing down was a bomb and my metal detector was a gun.

And I thought bringing ice cream machine parts for Lucy was silly.... My travel buds are probably happy now...knowing you are muling a chain saw and I only brought machine parts! HEE HEE:D
