The colonial architecture...I absolutely love this!!
The weather 65-75 and sunny most of the time. Some days rain and some cloudy but overall beautiful!!
Not having to grocery shop, cook, or do laundry...will I have time for this at home?? :-)
Fresh squeezed juice every morning
The amount of family time we have had to just be together and enjoy each others company!
Juanita playing music, singing and dancing in the kitchen every day
Ajiaco soup whenever we want to order it
People speaking Spanish even when you tell them you don't speak spanish...they just keep talking to you! :-)
Made to order breakfast every morning
Not having to look at a clock very often or know what day it is!
Ciclovia on Sundays
The friends that we have made
The flowers
Going to the park every day
The amazing restaurants
The area we are staying in
Mountain views
Walking everywhere we want to go
Going to markets
Speaking Spanglish!! :-)
Things we won't miss! :-)
Watching TV in Spanish...less than 5 channels in English
Uneven sidewalks...random iron sticking up and holes everywhere and trying to push the stroller..ugh! :-)
Crazy traffic...takes an hour to go anywhere in traffic
Pico de Placa..pollution from buses, trucks and all the traffic
Crazy taxi drivers and white knuckle rides, although most drivers are very friendly
Having no toilet seat and paying for toilet paper or sometimes to use the bathroom in public bathrooms
Having to throw toilet paper in the trash
People walking through traffic selling things (food, car phone chargers, pillows, umbrellas) and offering to clean your windshield
All of us sleeping in 1 room and hearing every little coo and Isaac talking in his sleep
Construction
We absolutely love this place and are going to have a hard time leaving that is for sure!!
One of many crazy sidewalks!!
