It's morning somewhere

Further adventures from Mexico. We noticed that the people of Mexico are a lot smaller than we are. While we were shopping, we discussed Thanksgiving turkey.

The young hispanic guy, Pedro, said, "turkey? we can sell you turkey, cheap. You catch your own bird." We thought that was a good idea. He led us down the beach and pointed to the turkey pictured. I didn't realize their turkeys were smaller, too.
.
So, Pedro handed us some sombreros, and we pitched them at the turkey until we captured him/her underneath. Too bad we didn't catch more than the one bird. It won't be enough for the whole family. Hey, what about turkey loaf? My sister was concerned that the turkey would be awfully sandy, because it obviously only ate sand. I figure we can pour plenty of gravy over it. Gravy makes everything taste great. Happy Thanksgiving!

Last week, I set the Friday Cat Blogging picture to kick off on Friday. The heater was not finished on Saturday, so I had to ask the guy working on it to fix it Monday. I gave him the keys and asked him to pick up the mail, and check on the cats; make sure they had food and water, and clean the litter boxes every two days.

My sister and two friends stopped by to pick me up, early Sunday morning. Onward, we flew down the road. Fourteen hours later, we were in Mobile, Alabama. Monday, We hopped the cruise ship to head down to the Yukatan Peninsula.

I worried that Rocky Girl would get out. Luckily, she didn't. I sure didn't want to have to set the live trap again! My vacation was fun, but it certainly reminded me there's no place like home, there's no place like home!
Leaving Alabama.

On the water. We sailed Monday and Tuesday.

On the water, by day. We arrived at Cozumel Wednesday morning.

What happens when it gets cold out? All five kitties make it a point to try and warm up the bed for me! They're just like hot water bottles!

Two cats from my sister's house.

The same two cats, from my sister's house, only from a different angle.

Lady Fortuna was a great model, this week.
Cotton and Lady Foruna converses. Says Lady Fortuna, "Cotton, don't you even THINK about getting on the damn box! It's mine!"

Lady Fortuna is explaining to Sgt Mango that she wants the box. Says Lady Fortuna, "Sgt Mango, get off the damn box! It's mine!"

Lady Fortuna is explaining to Rocky Girl that it's time for her to get off the box. Says Lady Fortuna, "Rocky Girl, it's time for you to get off the damn box! It's mine!"

Happy Friday! As always, check out the wonderful animal pictures linked for Friday Ark at The Modulator.
