We have the Van almost ready.....today we got windshieldwipers working - kind of a necessary thing looking at what kind of weather we're up against. Have you seen the extent of the cold front? All the way down into California, and even Nogales, Arizona, which is where we want to cross into Mexico, it is only 8 to 10 degrees Celcius. NOT what we're looking for.
We are looking for at least 20 degrees, which can be found in Mazatlan, Mexico, 2 days south of the border. So.....looks like we may initially be driving more than we had anticipated.
But, we'll play it by ear and eye. And we'll talk to people along the way hoping they can tell us where the WARM weather is!!!!
Isn't it sad we're so desparate......we should be good Canadians and be used to this cold. Maybe there's a little Mexican in us....
We are very much looking forward to this trip, though. All the finances have been updated and bills paid, got presents for everyone all wrapped, we have some things packed, doing last laundry loads, and the fridge is almost empty except for the Christmas food, and a big pot of chilli in the crockpot so we have something to eat when we need to before Saturday.
Come saturday morning - we're off!
