I am ashamed to see that I have been neglecting Ichabod in the run-up to Christmas… This time of year is always so hectic– endless christmas parties, well-wishing, present shopping, present wrapping, present exchanging. Not to mention frantically trying to cram 4 weeks worth of work into just two so that you can take some time off…
It’s all been chaotic. But now finally I have some time to stop and take a breather. We have all come out to Mexico, to spend Christmas with my mum & dad & all my siblings. We arrived yesterday and it’s simply blissful… Not just being with the family, which is always a delight but it’s so nice to have a slower pace of life for a bit.
The sun is shining and I spent the whole first day by the pool soaking up the rays and enjoying a good book (Georges Simenon).
We’re off to Tepotzlan later this morning to climb a pyramid, wander round the marketplace and eat vast amounts of tacos. hmmmm.
will let you know how it goes later.
Glad you see you are back. Have a lovely Christmas, from cold and foggy England. (Actually, thinking about it, glad you managed to fly out of the country.)

yes - our flight was delayed by the fog but we managed to make it out eventually!
