Crazy Americans cause chaos in Olvera

This is Bruce on the left and Russ, who have recently bought a property here in Olvera and who tonight kindly hosted a housewarming party to which we were invited.
Bruce and Russ currently live in Wisconsin, USA, hoping perhaps eventually to settle here in Olvera in the not too distant future.

We have been corresponding with them both via email for several months and it was great to meet up with them upon their arrival here a week ago.
So far they have tried to drive their car into streets up in the old town that a donkey would have trouble going down and parked their car on newly laid pavement on Calle Bellavista causing a bit of fuss with the labourers who eventually called in the police. Luckily, Bruce is fluent in spanish so an international incident was averted. Apart from that, only two more weeks to go so watch this space for more action.

They are a great couple of guys, meeting and making new friends and enjoying all that Olvera has to offer so we look forward to seeing more of them in the future.
