How do you start the day in Bucerias, Mexico, at +25 C and end the day in Winnipeg at -20 C? Well, you take a taxi from the condo (sniff, sniff) and get on a plane.

We ordered up a taxi yesterday, but I guess my reputation precedes me – they sent a 12 passenger van! Well it was a nice enough vehicle, but we sat in the first row behind the driver, which was very cramped – there was some kind of a compartment across behind the front seats.

On the way to the airport, we saw something interesting – notice the nativity depicted above the Wal-Mart entrance. I’ll bet you wouldn’t see that in Canada!

And we saw a VW “thing” while on our way to the airport.

Eric had arrived home a few days before, so he came to meet us at the airport. It turned out that he couldn’t track down keys to my De Ville, so he had to bring Dayna’s little Alero to pick us up. Oh well, we fit in just fine.

So Winnipeg is a little chilly compared to Mexico, but at least it is home.
By the way, when I had remote start put into my car the following Saturday, they found the other set of keys. I think they were under the seat, sigh.
