Countdown To The Cruisers

The other day when I was downtown I had my camera with me, so I took another picture of the countdown to the cruisers clock. That was Tuesday, so today there would be only 33 days left before they come. I guess they are having a contest and there will be 2 winners who will each win 2 tickets on the cruise. They will be flown from Hermosillo to San Diego, stay in a hotel in San Diego and then sail on the cruise ship to here. The contest is that you have to come up with a slogan to greet the cruise ship with. Good luck to anyone who enters the contest.

Last year we had a couple of parrots on the loose around here and then they just disappeared. Well, yesterday either a different one escaped or one of the originals was back. I don't know which; but he was sure making a noise. Haven't seen him this morning; but then we have been having rain showers off and on, so maybe he is trying to stay dry somewhere.

Such a cutie, that parrot.

For the cruisers, how about
"Bienvenidos! Por favor, no tire basura!" I know, not catchy enough.

Or, "Bienvenidos! Por favor, tire dinero, no tire basura!"
is more like it.
