This week and most weeks our schedule is as follows; get up, have breakfast, do dishes, read the news and our emails. By the time we are finished doing that, it's about 11o'clock. We have a look outside, see that the sun is shining and it is very warm out and decide it's time to go to the library. It's usually still cool in the library as there is a nice breeze blowing. Here are Vic, Bev and Mike getting settled in. Alfonso has made a bookcase to house the books that are in the library.
I should also mention that the library is also the Happy hour meeting place. The chairs are set this way so that the gecko droppings will not land on the seats. :}
Alfonso is the very nice, capable, Mexican fellow who manages the park. He speaks English, but his wife, Erica, who is the housekeeper, does not. There are some bungalows here for rent plus 12 rv spaces. Right now there are 10 rvs here but no one booked into the bungalows. We are a family here . It is a good feeling.
The bakery here in town travels around to the rv parks selling fresh baked goods. Sorry, Doc. I know you told me to stay away from sweets, but everything is so good and until I got settled in Mexico I was being really good. But the bakery isn't the only merchant who is mobile. The produce truck also comes at least twice a week. Saul also has a restaurant in town. This is Saul's son. Notice the weigh scale on the hood? There is Walter trying to decide what to get.
This past week marked a period of very high tides. After one very noisy night of wave pounding on the beach we discovered that the beach lost a lot of sand. Much of the lost sand has returned thank goodness. It felt weird to be walking on rocks. The wave activity has also left behind on the beach a multitude of stones of all sizes. This is annoying to the boarders who are scraping feet, toes and other body parts on the rocks as they attempt to come ashore.
This is the serious surfers' area at the south end of the beach. Oh yes, I have to add that I went out with Mike holding my hand and I experienced for the first time what it is like to dive under these waves. It is an experience only you dear readers can have by being here.
Tomorrow David and Kelsi take over rv living while Mike and I take a break in Puerto Vallarta. They will look after the dog for us.
Till next time,
Mave n Mike
