The new site address is: ruthkennedysretirementblog.com Blogger was a great site to get started, however it is cumbersome to navigate and where I often have poor internet so slow to upload pictures. The new site is going to be more manageable ...I think. New posts should be easier and it contains all the old blogger posts too. Please continue to read the posts...you also now have the option to follow me. Thanks all Cheers Ruth

We went exploring the area around Pedasi, with the goal to end up in Playa Venao, a surf beach 30 km from Pedasi. We ended up driving 160 km through some of the most beautiful scenery imaginable. Lots of rolling hills and a road that went straight up, then straight down. Yep, you can see the ocean way in the distance I love the fence posts that are actual growing trees. Yeah, we are still more than a little crazy!! It seems like every little town has a square and a church. It was pretty quiet for a Sunday morning. We took a side road to Isla Caña, hoping we would find a beach. We kind of did.... we found a river and a kind gentleman told us it was a 5 minute boat ride or a 10 minute walk to the beach. Absolutely no English spoken here. But an interesting conversation anyway. The next little side road took us to an incredibly beautiful beach. One family were out enjoying the water. Be interes...

This little town of Pedasi has around 4000 people. We are fortunate enough to live within walking distance for most of our needs. This little restaurant is max 5 minutes walk and is owned by a couple that lived in Toronto for many years. Such a small world, one of their daughters is now living in North Battleford, Daryl's home town.                                                                                                                                                                                         ...
