Nice day


The dog groomer's store where we took our shit-zu for a hair
cut and bath.


Next door is the laundry place where we dropped our clothes
off to be washed and folded.

We had several tasks today one was to find the FEDEX office and the DHL office they are located out on the road going by the airport. Figured that somehow we would get lost again, but to our surprise we found both offices and managed to get the information we needed. I was trying to ship medication from Texas but both places said they didn't do that.

Our next task was to find a place that was recomended for curtians for our windows. Seems that packaged curtians are not readily available here in Merida so they have to be made. We found the store and got a lady who spoke some english to help us as I don't know many words that have to do with making curtians. It seems they send a man out to do the measuring and later you pick the fabric and they make the curtians and call you when they are ready.

After ording the curtians we went across the street to Bodega a supermarket and did a little shopping. We felt so good we went for lunch at a restuarant. A lovely day we didn't get lost or frustrated just a good day.

We know someone who regularly flies to the USA to pick up his meds, but he has no co-pay and a house to stay in.
It's been years since we moved here but when we investigated having medicine shipped we found out it wasn't possible even though we had prescriptions for the medicine. Maybe you will have better luck.
regards,
Theresa

No luck so far, I am hoping that my sister can pick up my meds at the walmart pharmacy and bring them with her, when she returns in a month. If not it could get interesting.
