The First Week

Over the past couple of days, all our scheduled guests have arrived and our future housemates are settling into our next shared home. The Edward’s arrived two days ago and we have been keeping busy with them. They are in Casa Rosa with us, it’s been a hoot.

Jacque and Grant arrived yesterday (Sunday) and are in the process of settling into the house where Linda and I will be moving come this next Friday.  We checked the place out and it is very nice.

Sunday was spent on the beach down at the west end of Melaque. We invaded Titto’s beach restaurant and spent the day on the sand. It was a bit crowded but we had lots of fun. Ryan and Zane went fishing from the playa and the ladies sat in the shade of the umbrellas. Anika spent her time rolling in the sand and chasing waves. We ate beach food and drank iced beverages. The service was good and the food was enjoyable.

On Monday the Edwards took a bus over to La Manzanilla and spent the day on the beach. Linda and I are under the weather. Both Linda and I have had bouts with the bugs that are around down here in Mexico, nothing you can do to prevent them, we just take some little pills and they go away after a couple days. On top of that, Linda caught a small cold and then passed it on to me. Not the best start to the wintering process, but at least we have it all behind us now.

Tuesday the boys went fishing with Captain Gerry. We hooked three dorados and a bunch of Bonitos. Zane reeled in his first dorado ever! It was a great day and we have fish to eat for the next week.

Muscle beach party!

It's all in the way you hold your tongue.
