What is this list that you speak of. Yo soy confused. I mean most of those sound legit but why in the world would you want to fold so many paper cranes?!? Fold less, blog more.

On another note...can I drive in Mexico? I mean if we go to Playa del carman and fly into Cancun can I rent a car to drive the hour or am I going to have to stock up on atovan and dramamine and call it a day?

Just wondering....

Also...how are things?
