Inbound from Tuxtla Gutiérrez Mexico – our guests arrive by train, Jul 31, 2017, Ray M


Tuxtla Gutiérrez Ambassadors and their Sacramento Hosts at Sacramento Station

Our Tuxtla guests arrive by train

Inbound from Tuxtla Gutiérrez Mexico, Day 1 of 8, July 31, 2017

By:  Ray M


Our Tuxtla Gutiérrez ambassadors arrived a few minutes early and we were there to give them an  enthusiastic welcome.  It was a 10-hour trip with one train connection from Santa Barbara – to pass the time, the kids played charades (by phone) and their Santa Barbara hosts had packed nice lunches for their trip.  After the greeting, the ambassadors departed with their hosts for some rest, relaxation and good food. And some enjoyed a dip in the pool

The train arrives, 18 min. early

YOU ARE A STAR! Posts are looking terrific Ray. Good work!

Some suggestions:
Day 1 of 8 arrival blog, would suggest you downsize lead photo from extra-large to large. It is overlapping green column. Vertical photos can easily be extra-large. Consider bumping up all medium and smaller photos to large.

Thanks, Roz - edits made, added a few pix. I resized the lead photo to 90% but Blogger stretched it out again when I made it extra large. 'Large' is a bit too small to see all the faces. Oh well.

From Ipad, a tap on any photo in post enlarges just the photo nerly full sceen and you can scroll through all the photos in that post. Not sure if this works with computer. Ro\oz
