Another Week Coming to an End

Week 3 is finishing up now.  To start, here's a bit of a re-cap from last weekend...the 17th Annual Costal Festival was going on last weekend, and it was a great cultural experience!



People came from all over the region to show their typical dances

 Sara & I also went back to the Finals of the Surf Tournament on Sunday morning.

The beach was CROWDED!

After the surf tournament, Sara, Rodney, and I went on a bird-watching boat trip in a nearby lagoon.  
It was one of the most peaceful things I've done in a long time. 








We met a little friend along the way! 



The bird-watching trip concluded with a beautiful sunset on the ocean.  Click on the link below to see a one-minute version of the ten minutes of video I condensed.  



And what Mexican vacation wouldn't be complete without a wonderful Greek meal?  Sara & I decided to make it a tradition to eat Greek food each Sunday evening since this restaurant is SOOOO good!

This week, I was in a clinic close to the airport, and we saw a great variety of pediatric & adult patients.  Sara spent most of her time in the Operating Room, so we were able to contrast & compare very different experiences this week.  The health care system in Mexico has so many good things going for it. Of course, any health care system could use its improvements, but Mexico's focus on prevention is definitely something I want to bring back to the U.S. with me.
