Esperanza,
I will do my homework and research the different towns although the weather is never something we can control but we will try and work around what works best for most of those interested in this trip. Having been there in the summer, fall and winter, I can say that fall has been the best time in terms of rates for airfare and the weather. June, July and August are the rainy, stormy months.

Thanks for your input, this will be valuable when we have our meeting in July.
Alicia

Alicia,

I would be most available during the last two weeks of July, early August (I
am a teacher who takes classes and am assuming some leadership
responsibilities within our district throughout early summer). This trip would fulfill my
dreams not only personally, but professionally as well (particularly if
Esteban Valedez does indeed commit to the group).

Most importantly, I get to meet "la prima Helyn" and the rest of this
wonderful, supportive cyber space community!
