Flight tickets bought!

Ruth went over to the bathroom here at the campground, and came back to tell me I have to take a picture of the lizard she saw because it's so tiny!

So I wandered over later and put a coin on the floor beside it so you could see just how tiny it is.

She was right, it is so tiny!

Tiny lizard.

I spent a couple of hours on the laptop researching our plans once we leave Mexico in early May.

We want to head up to Scotland (haven't been there since 1987!) but it's still too cold up there in May! 

The cheapest place across the pond to fly from Mexico City is Spain. And specifically Madrid, a city we've never been to. When we had been in that area with Max a couple of years ago, we avoided Madrid, figuring that eventually one day we would end up flying there to connect somewhere else. 

And sure enough, that's exactly what we're doing. 

The tickets are still a little pricey, but that's because we are stuck buying one way only because although we will be flying back to Mexico City in the fall, we might do so from Canada. Anyhow, buying one way leaves us a lot more options. 

So, one way from Mexico City to Madrid was 8,950 pesos ($627 CAD, $437 USD) per person.

But at least it's on AeroMexico which is a relatively good airline.

We'll spend a couple or three days in Madrid, then rent a car and head to the northern part of Spain. We liked the area when we had been there with Max, but we ran out of time because we were booked on the ferry to Ireland.

We'll spend the rest of the month of May in northern Spain, then make our way to Scotland for June.
