Well - tonight it was off to Jocotepec (He-coat-e-pec) for dinner at a 4-Star Mexican Dining establishment. I'm not sure of the name but when I come to think of it, I doubt that this place really didn't have a name. Don from Texas had been there before and thought that we should all make another night of it. So off we went to Jocotepec to what was "all the meat you can eat" - cooked on rebar. It was truly a very basic restaurant, or at best a road side cafe tha...

Tonight we went into Ajijic with John to meet his brother and his wife (Eloy / Ginger) for dinner at Tango Restaurant, supposedly the best steak restaurant in Ajijic. Unfortunately just as we were leaving Deb came down with an upset stomach - so she chose to stay at home for this evening. The restaurant located just south of the Cararterra on Morelos #5 was great. We ordered Spinach fritters to start along with two great margaritta's (not as large as Viva Mexic...

We've all experienced special nights in our life, moments that we will just never forget. Well for Deb and I we had one of those occasions last night.

It didn't seem to matter how big or small, how big the lot was or if there was a view or not, it was all the same price - the only thing that seemed to change around was ...

I don't know where to start today, plus it's a little tough to top yesterday's announcement of Hannah's arrival. I can't tell you how I feel now that she has entered my life. Well, it's Monday here in Ajijic and the plan is to head down for breakfast to Cafe Negro and then onto Chapala for the first time. I've said this before, but it's quicker for us to get to the Caraterra (the main road the runs between Ajijic and Chapala) by going down the "back lane" It see...
