The first week...

Week one has come and gone and what a mixture of life it has been.  The weather here has been crazy.  We arrived to hot sunshine, but then clouds rolled in and we had 4 nights with rain.  Not just showers but torrential rain!  and cloudy days and very, very muggy.. The pool was used frequently to get your temperature down!

Wednesday night was the first Pool Party Dinner of the season.  There were 36 of us served chili rellenos.  For those of you not versed in Mexican cuisine those are grilled and stuffed peppers. One was stuffed with cheese the other with beef, and then there was vegetables, rice, and beans!

They were very good, I had to use my phone light to get a good glimpse at what we were eating as it was quite dark by dinner time..

After dinner there was music supplied by fellow rv'er Joe and there was line dancing, polking and fun until the skies opened up cut the fun short.

On Thursday we went into town to the market (sorry I keep forgetting to take pictures) it stretched all around the square and down the street forever.  We walked along and along on the cobblestone road and finally gave up and walked back to the square and found a nice patio to cool down and have a 16 peso cervesa (beer) which is approx $1.40 for a bottle.  Cheaper then a bottle of water back home, but of course some would say it is very weak beer but on a hot day, man, do those taste good!

On Friday, we took at taxi to Rincon de Guayabitos to check out the area.. Bus loads of people from all over Mexico had come into town for the weekend.  The beach was solid umbrellas.

They were releasing 120 turtles at the far end of the beach that night but we didn't wait around to see them head for the open seas

Today, there was pool volleyball for the first time this season.  There were twelve players and we played 4 games.  It was a blast!

tonight is fish and chips or burger night at the pool, and tomorrow might be a big day for you know who!  What a way to celebrate!
