I woke up to another cloudy morning. They usually dissipate around 9am but lasted until noon today. I picked up the place before Marta’s arrival at 9:30am. Then we spent the rest of the morning planning and mapping our upcoming trip to Tequila, scheduling our week with the kids and finalizing plans with the landscaper. … More Mexico – Day 66

While I wrote yesterday’s long blog, we enjoyed an incredible show from 2 whales just flapping their fins and jumping, all pretty close to shore. Pogo was able to drone over them and filmed them for a good 10 minutes. We left around 11am to go for breakfast with a stop at the carwash. We … More Mexico – Day 65

We left at 9:30am to do a little excursion with Mario and Josée, using l’auto à mon oncle. We went through San Juan de Abajo. Pogo likes to find little side roads, which ends up being driving in fields or very bumpy roads but most of the time we discover beautiful vistas. On our first … More Mexico – Day 64

I met Josée in the parking lot at 9:30am and we drove with “l’auto à mon oncle”, their car’s nickname, to the market. We took our time and browsed slowly through all the stalls for a few hours. I got a top and she bought a necklace and a wallet for Mario. We sat for … More Mexico – Day 63

I woke up at 7am and wrote my blog. Pogo got up at 8:30am. We were ready to go for our walk at 10am but he saw a whale so decided to go droning. No luck with the footage. He was then detained by adoring fans and chit chatted until 11am. We finally took a … More Mexico – Day 62

We were about to go for a walk but decided instead to go to Bucerias for breakfast. On the way there, we noticed that all the primavera trees were in bloom in an explosion of yellow! It felt like it happened overnight. We went to Los Pericos. We both felt like an American breakfast. Pogo … More Mexico – Day 61

Just like that, we have been in Mexico for 2 months. Time definitely flies by. I woke up to our outside camera back home capturing a coyote on our lawn. We also had the same silly squirrel triggering the camera as he does almost every day. And! we saw a huge turtle walking back to … More Mexico – Day 60

While Marta cleaned the condo, we went to a new restaurant I had spotted out on one of our drive called Hacienda Mamá Nena. It is a family owned restaurant located on a very quiet side street and behind a tall wall, that just celebrated their 3rd anniversary 2 days ago. We talked to the … More Mexico – Day 59

I went to Bucerias this morning to do some shopping with Josée and Diane. I bought 2 rings and 2 bracelets. We stopped at a little café and had a yogurt and fruits while Josée’s favorite jewelry vendor was setting up. The bracelet she had seen there before was gone but she ended up buying … More Mexico – Day 58

The tide was so high when we got up that the waves went all the way up to the palapas. Pogo had a scheduled call with Tasso from Chicken Charlie this morning who wanted to get his advice about selling his business. We then walked to La Isla for breakfast and the burrito was so … More Mexico – Day 57
