Saturday, September 27, 2025

Last night I took my Diphenhydramine and Zopiclona tablets and went to bed at 10pm, fell asleep quickly, got up once during the night, finally waking/getting up at 7:15.

After my usual Saturday breakfast of blueberry pancakes, I walked to the mall.

It looks like the atrium is getting set up for what looks like a Lego maze called Block Kids:





I went upstairs to the banking area where there is a booth for a travel agent. No one was there so I had a latte in a café next door. The agent arrived at 10am, I paid for my latte then moved to Com Viajes to inquire about an end of the year trip. My requirements were: December 23rd to January 2nd, All-inclusive resort, and on the beach. I specifically mentioned as examples: Dominican Republic, Jamaica, and Cancun, Mexico. He did his magic on his laptop and came up with these four options for Cancun:




I told him I’d check them out and show them to my wife and let him know.

I stopped in Exito and picked up pads, a bag of milk, a can of pasta sauce and a package of blueberries and returned to the apt by taxi.

We left the apt at 12:45 and took a Didi to Mi Casita Parilla only to find it closed. (I saw a note on the door and Teresa said something about them being closed permanently.) Around the corner was the fair Teresa wanted to go to at the Cultural Center but we hadn’t had lunch yet. I paid the Didi driver an extra 7mil cash to take us back to Calle La Buena Mesa and we got out at Eduardo Madrid bakery. Teresa talked to one of the workers inside and I guess they don’t have their chicken sandwiches today because we soon left.

We were walking around the corner toward Asados Rogelio when Teresa found this Peruvian buffet called Kusi.




We both found some things we liked and even went back for seconds. It started raining while we were there. Along with our two Cokes, the total check came to about 120,000 pesos, which I thought was high but Teresa informed me it was because of the seafood.

The rain had nearly stopped as we left and returned to the apt.

I watched the first two episodes of True Detective, season 1 on Stremio.

One of my blog readers responded to my electronic visa comment with “You don’t have to show a paper copy of your visa. You can download it to your phone (I paste it using Notes on my Iphone) and show it to immigration when it is needed. That’s why it’s an electronic visa…” Thank you for that!
