Dec. 7, 2007




Hi Everyone,
We are currently in Tuxla, Chiapas, MX. The lost ducks, flying in formation, left Puebla this afternoon, after a smooth 3 hour flight we arrived in Tuxla. We thought we could clear customs here and head for Guatemala first thing in the morning but we should have known that it was not that simple. It turns out that they only have customs officials signs here but not the real people. So looks like we have one more stop in MX before we clear out.
It´s very warm here about 25C. Went out to a restaurant to where there ended up being a show of traditional music and dancing. It was a nice end to the day. Our tracker is back on track. So you can watch our progress. Can you believe it?, Lorne not only fixed the tracker with his handy jack-knife, he also picked out a new car for Frankie. Frankie please send a cheque, because between the car and Ed's plane Lorne is really short of cash.

The pilot crowd will recognize the emblem of the P51 Mustang on Lorne’s T shirt, Lorne and his son Mike flew P51’s in aerobatic formation flying. The photo itself may not be clear enough to identify the plane until attention is drawn to it.

Take care, we miss you all.
Barb, Harold and Lorne

Boss, you forgot about the Christmas party - you know, that time of year when the temp rises to the mid -30's to make travel easier...
