It has been too long...

I cannot believe I have been negligent with my blogging.  However, for a quick rundown of the past THREE MONTHS.... eeek! ... keep reading!! 

AMAZING trip to Mexico with Christy, fellow international teacher extraordinaire who is in Liberia again this year.  Travelling in Mexico ended with a small jaunt to a friend's wedding in Cabo San Lucas. Fantastic!! 

Wonderful visits with old and dear friends in Virginia. 

Family visiting. 

A relatively uneventful move back to Bulgaria for the new school year. 

A busy start to the new year... new responsibilities, new roommates (who are wonderful!), new places travelled and some more trips to come!! 

Here are some of my favorite photos from the past few months.  I hope to elaborate a bit more about each of the trips, places, people and events in the next week or two.  I am thrilled!!! to have my friend Sally come for a visit this week!!  She has been living in Prague and will be there this year while she is teaching English at a Prague high school.  They have a week off of school randomly and so she is coming here to visit in Bulgaria and to try to see some of the great places BG has to offer, as well as explore around Sofia with me and friends.  I am totally excited to have her here, and I look forward to sharing some of our adventures together! 

Okay, so the photos, in no real particular order... 

The house of Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo... what a long, emotional and messy relationship they had... 

Cultural Festival in the Mexico City neighborhood of Coyoacan

Reflections 

Christy and I at maybe the greatest taco place in Mexico City (well, at least in the neighborhood) which also had the most adorable waiter, Pedro, who was completely taken with us and kept getting teased by the "older Pedro" and the other waiters... completely hysterical. 

Nationalism is the largest flag in one of the largest central squares in the world.

Rocks on the boat ride/dinner cruise in Cabo to kick off Derek and Jenn's wedding festivities :-)
