Old Town Revisited

Old Town Revisited
We haven't been doing too much the last few days, just vegging out with the beasties basically and watching NOAA for the hurricane reports. Thankfully (for us) Hurricane Lane veered inland and did not go close to Guaymas. I hope that it did not cause too much damage elsewhere.
As you can see by the photo Roy and Bonnie are on an exhausting schedule.


It was nice and sunny yesterday so we decided to head back to Old Town, Albuquerque. We wandered around and looked at more shops, galleries, etc. and sat in the plaza for awhile. A nice afternoon.





We are totally amazed at the insect life here, everywhere you look there is a different kind of bug/insect/caterpillar/spider. I am not sure if this is normal or if it is just because they have had so much rain this year. We have seen 3 scorpions already, at home in Guaymas we have only seen 2 in 8 months. There has been 2 more huge caterpillars like the one that I posted the photo of the other day. The other evening there was an absolutely huge spider on a web (outside, thankfully), he had caught an aphid or something and was going out to dine. Lots of flying ants also. Interesting place.
