Pogo had left to do a few errands early and Marta and her friend Lette arrived earlier than normal to clean the condo so we left for our walk only at 10:30am.   We saw the Grand Velas hotel redoing the palapa over the front entrance with only one worker tied up with a rope. … More Mexico – Day 45

I love waking up with the full moon reflecting on the ocean. We went to D Bistro for breakfast than Pogo dropped me off at the Pilates studio. When I was done, he was waiting for a haircut next door. We came back at the condo at noon. I picked up the place, finished the … More Mexico – Day 44

We slept in, had breakfast and left at 11am to go to the market in the parking lot of Chedraui in Bucerias. It was much smaller than the one in Nuevo so we didn’t stay long. We drove into town for a little bit but then decided to go find Destiladeras Beach, a place we … More Mexico – Day 43

Very lazy morning. Besides making breakfast, we were on our tablets until I went to Pilates at 11:30am. I saw Andrea, the other instructor, because the one I had seen before, doesn’t work there anymore. I actually really liked her so I will give it another try. Pogo went to the beach and I talked … More Mexico – Day 42

Happy Valentine’s Day! We left at 9:30am to do some errands. First a stop at Starbucks, then we went to Costco and La Comer. We also went to La Isla Shopping Center for the first time. It is an outdoor shopping mall but much smaller than we thought it would be with lots of empty … More Mexico – Day 41

On our walk this morning, we ran into a couple. The lady was very tanned except for the very white outline of the frame of her sunglasses. Her eyelids were tanned as well so maybe she had no lens? All I know is after passing them, Pogo and I looked at each other and burst … More Mexico – Day 40

After a few loads of laundry, we did our normal walk to Starbucks and brunch at La Isla. Besides our fruit salad, we felt like a BLT which is not on the menu. We explained what we wanted and they brought us a humongous sandwich with not only bacon, lettuce and tomatoes but grilled ham, … More Mexico – Day 39

Derrick and Deidre left the hotel at 4am to go to the airport and arrived safely in Oaxaca at 8:30am.  When Pogo and I went downstairs to have breakfast at 8:30am, we noticed that all the furniture had been moved.  We asked the girl at the front desk if they were having an event.  She … More Mexico -Day 38

We met for the included breakfast at 8:30am then left at 10am to spend the day in Tlaquepaque, a Pueblo Magico.  We walked on the main pedestrian only street and saw the most unique stores and restaurants. The street was full of unusual statues. We had a late lunch at Restaurante Casa Luna which had the … More Mexico -Day 37

Pogo left at 7:30am to walk around town before it got crowded. I started writing yesterday’s blog. Uploading my pictures has been an annoying issue on this trip. We met Derrick and Deidre for breakfast at 8:30am, took a taxi to the bus station and after an 4 hours ride, we arrived in Guadalajara at … More Mexico – Day 36
