Walk with Milli on Saturday morning.

I set out to walk into Ajijic to check out some shops, by myself, for some alone time. As usually happens, it turned into something else, a 5 block walk with Milli. We walked through a nearby neighborhood called La Floresta and took some pictures of things we see all the time that I want to remember.

Next to our house is a futbol field. I like this sign.

A lot of gringos live in La Floresta. They have big houses with big walls around them with glass or barbed wire at the top.

The street signs in La Floresta are bright orange.

Many of the walls have vines growing on them with purple flowers.

Almost all the houses have a tile with the address and/or name of the house on it.

Farther down the road, you can hire horses to ride.

As you get closer to Ajijic, the houses get smaller, but still pretty.

Milli decided she couldn't walk another step, so we called Dave to pick us up.
Even though some window shopping would have been nice, it was peaceful to spend some quiet time with Milli. That's a rare thing.

Gorgeous pictures Carrie! I'm so glad you got to spend some time with your girl. It is near impossible to get quality one-on-one time with them. She will treasure it...even if she could not possibly walk.one.more.step!
