Gypsy's Trip Report May 2009


We are back to the freezing north, :(, and just wanted to post a quick trip report.

The trip down, was uneventful, we left Saskatoon at 5:00 pm, on Friday, and arrived in San Diego at around 10:30 Sat night.

Crossing the boarder with all our stuff was a piece of cake, not sure why I was so worried!

The first sights of the wine fields, made my heart swell, as I knew I was finally home!



When we got to the turn off to Asuncion, I made mr. gypsy get out and take a picture of us at the turn off!





We arrived in Asuncion, in record time, fist time that we showed up so early!!!!(9:00 pm):cool:

The next morning, I was up at 4:00 am (way to excited to sleep), I walked over to our house, stood and had a cofee and just sat and touched our house!

The doors we had made were spectacular, I love the craftmans ship that went into making them.



We got tons accomplished on our house, Mr. Gypsy, got all the electrical run, and the plumbing done! But of course there was plenty of beach time!





Shari already posted about mothers day, but here are some more pictures!














San Roque, is still my favorite place on this earth, I could sit there for ever.





We want to thank Shari & Juan for all their help, and Juan's family for all the fun!

We are busy planning our next trip, and can't wait to get back down!

Great Trip report.


Your place is really coming along now, would be great if you were down at Christmas again. Its a great time to be down there although the weather may not be as good as now. I just saw today where its snowing up Alberta way, not sure if you are getting that too, beautiful here in Ontario.
It is a special place that BA, we too can't wait to get back down. Hope to see you soon. BY the way, great looking truck and rig.

Nice report Bajagypsy. So what was star gazing like up on top of your shed? What a view you must have up there.

well, I'm finally recovering from the Gyspy visit! they sure worked hard and not even one visit to the emergency ward this time! Ms.Gypsy was on her best behavior although she did have to be restrained from BabyNapping a couple times. Here is the picture she didnt include in her report.

Bajagypsy, Thanks for the pictures. Your home away from home is looking good.:) Is the name of that soap "Zote". Have used it for catfish bait.:) Where do you cross into the USA? Have a couple of kayaks and racks that you might be interested in. ;)

Cypress We cross by sweetgrass (I15), kayaks would be way fun, I have never kayaked before!

Barb, the view is increadable, we have a big ass bed and you can lie in it and look at the sky and the ocean at the same time, it is magic!

Tiomiguel, we are hoping to be down at christmas, it was way to much fun last time!!!! We like the truck, it gets the job done!
