Somehow la familie de Pierre thought it would be a good investment for him to buy a Chateau of his own in Merida. It makes perfect sense. We know so many people in Merida, and god knows Pierre does so much business in Mexico. The humor is kind of lost on that sentence, but it was also lost on the family as we went from house to house with the real estate agent giving a firm “no” at every stop (which was quickly followed with, “please drop us off at the taco stand at the second house”). Pierre had the good sense to take some pictures of some of the houses on the market which you can see here. You will notice a very slumpy and wilted keempoo in one of them. Promise.
