Hello from me 🛳️

I am doing a test run because it seems that some people that apparently signed on to receive email notifications when I post, are not showing up on my system.

If you received this, would you please send me a message by text or email. It is much easier for me to respond through either than through this website. Please, the same applies when I am on “tour”.

Thanks Gail

Bucerias-Feb 29-Mar 2/24

I went to Bucerias for the last 2 days in Mexico and stayed at Ross and Greg’s “Casa Mexi-Cana”. If you want to stay at very nice place in Bucerias, Nayarit…..check it out. It has amenities that you don’t normally get in Mexican accommodations…..plus it is pretty! I had posted other pictures of the outside seating areas from when we were PV at the beginning of February.

I am home now. I expected that I would have a short 5 hour journey home on a direct flight. Not! Because of freezing temps and snow in Calgary, the plane was delayed by 3.45 hour on coming to pick us up. I returned to spring flowers and sunny skies only to have on 2 separate days, have it turn to hail and snow. It is still good to be home 😅!

Rincon de Guayabitos-Feb. 4-11/24

I apologize in advance if you get multiple editions of my posts. I have heard that when wifi is very poor that it sometimes will do that. And the wifi here is very poor. I have also heard that there is a glitch with Microsoft. Who knows.

Puert Vallarta Jan. 31-Feb. 3/24

We arrived back in Puerto Vallarta after a very long bus ride on a very winding “highway”. Although the bus was quite luxurious, after all it had 2 toilets, it was extremely treacherous to find your way back to the bathrooms without falling into someone’s lap or flat on your face.

This time we stayed for 3 nights at the Comfort Inn instead of the “One”. It has nicer accommodations and lovely pool, the breakfasts were not much better. The first evening we just strolled around the Marina area. It is very nice but OMG so many people.

Next day we went out to see a friend who has along with a business partner from Victoria, opened a small hotel. It will have seating for 150 by next year with all the outside seating and upstairs “Nickel” country Bar named after the Canadian nickel. It’s called Poncho Beave’s. The job they have done on this place is absolutely amazing. Below are pix of the Casa Mexi-Cana

The following day we took the Hop on, Hop off bus around PV. It certainly worth it.

Saturday the 3rd, we travelled by bus again but that was not nearly as zigzagging……to Rincon de Guayabitos. We are here for +/- a month.
