Mostly this is for the kids, so they can look back and remember how crazy their momma was and how she insisted on homeschooling in the sun.

My walk to School + Leprachauns in Mexico? and Pi night!
So me, Catalina, goes to School on Mondays and Thursday mornings. The kids go in the afternoon, after their "Seattle School" but I go in the morning. In the last few weeks I have been walking, it seemed to take only 5 minutes or so more and of course allows me to see so much. Why only 5 minutes more, because when driving I must drive out of the neighborhood, through Guayabitos, onto Highway, into La Penita and through the rough roads to class. If I walk, I walk to a pedestrian bridge and am in La Penita. I still have a ways to walk and still have to cross the highway, which, is a matter of risking your life. "Just walk when the masses do" I was told....but the "bridge of life" is pretty cool. The stink. The crocs. The birds. The fishing boats. Kinda quintessential Coastal Mexico
And guess what. The Leprachauns made it to Mexico. For St. Paddy's day. They are so tricky and funny that they showed up on MARCH 16th. Wait, what? They must have been confused by the time change or the language barrier, or something. They dyed the toilet water. The milk and the cream cheese. Maybe had a cerveza?
We also celebrated Pi night, with a pizza, math work and ...well, a mango mojito because mangos are kinda round.
