Mexican New Year

Tonight is New Years Eve and there will be many festivities in town – parties, street parties, fireworks, great food and drinks. It probably sounds a lot like where you live – isn’t it interesting how in every country things can be so different and yet many things are the same?

We will be heading down to the beach again to ring it in. Are you surprised? I’ll be counting my blessings of how fortunate I feel to be able to live in Mexico with my husband and children as I gaze out over the ocean with the distant lights of Cozumel and the twinkling blanket of stars over us. I will probably have no jacket on (Big Smile).

I don’t know how late we will stay there but I do know that whenever we get home the neighborhood parties will still be in full swing. Well if we can’t sleep we can always join them.

By the way, one fun tradition that is observed in Mexico is the eating of 12 grapes - one with each stroke of the chiming bell at midnight. This is to bring good luck for the coming year.

May your New Year be full of fun, love, prosperity and travel.

Enjoy the Adventure! Suzanne

Learning Reiki in Mexico

Yep that is what my husband and I will be doing this weekend! We are going to Cozumel for a weekend of Reiki how to. Cozumel is an island about a half hour ferry ride from Playa del Carmen and is a beautiful, fun place to spend some time. We may even get to see a sunset over the water as we cannot see the sun set over the water from Playa del Carmen. We are on the wrong side!

What is Reiki? Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "the laying on of hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. I want to learn how to do that!

So as you can now see there are many interesting things to pursue in Mexico. As if you had any doubt! I'll let you know if I find anything humorous there!

Enjoy the Adventure! Suzanne
