The last time we were in Mexico, 2007

OK, I am freaking out! Yesterday, while I was Skyping with Amelia and Molli, we were trying to book our flights to Mexico. They were more expensive than we had expected, but we were able to line up our flights with Amelia, so we flew together from Houston to Mexico and Mexico to Veracruz. But when I clicked on the flight, it said sorry, due to increased traffic that flight is not available (or some such). I tried 3 or 4 times. Amelia was able to get hers, but I could not book mine. I called Orbitz, they tried, they got the same results. I said, I'll try first thing sunday morning, it will surely be better then. Now it is $100 more! Man, this is when you wish money didn't matter.

Other than that, and the incredible heat, we had a lovely time yesterday. dinner with friends, a quiet day. Ray mowed the lawn, even though it was almost 100 degrees!
