On the day of the winter solstice this seemed an appropriate title. We woke up to a temperature of 1C. Actually it’s colder inside our apartment most of the day due to no heat and a large leaky window, which is kind of ironic because the house in Garden Bay has wonderful new windows and a gas fireplace.
For the first time they set up an outdoor skating rink in Guanajuato. Pretty amazing given that the daily high is usually above 20C. To enter you must provide a donation of food or clothing, and skates are provided.
This is our little balcony, decorated by the owners with poinsettias for Christmas. To enter our apartment we pass through the main house which is festively decorated including a live tree. We’ll be spending Christmas with Aimeé’s family.
