A lot of packages showing up today!

We had done some looking around town for beds and bedding, but it ended up there was a lot more selection and better pricing buying through Amazon Mexico. 

So we ended up ordering a bunch of stuff, most of which will be delivered today.

We got everything queen sized for the downstairs bedroom. With a 12" memory foam mattress, steel bed frame, headboard, mattress protector, pillows, pillow protectors, sheets, pillow cases, and comforter... for a total of 8,800 pesos ($671 CAD, $479 USD).

We think that was pretty good considering everything gets delivered right to the door.

The mattress won't show up until November 4th though, so photos will have to wait.

But in the meantime...

I was busy painting.

The wall repairs and painting is now all done in that room.

The carpenter is coming at 2:00pm this afternoon along with our friend Fernando to help with translating if necessary. Hopefully we can get that work started.

We are going to take the ATV for a drive about 7 kms down to the dam this morning to see if the water has breached the top of the dam. The water level in the lake is the highest it's been for several years after being really low last year. How quickly things can change!

And, we had our third Spanish lesson of the week...

Things are going really well, and we are definitely learning... but sometimes it makes my head hurt!
