Ha! I barely managed to put a small dimple dent in the supply of Victoria and Hornitos Reposado, but I sure enjoyed every gulp and sip respectively.

Welcome back! Your timing is perfect. You just nicked the tail end of the maddening crowds.

I hope you and Mrs. Grumpy are spoiling each other rotten and enjoying all the nice little pleasures of our tropical paradise. Be sure to treat yourselves to the Tiramisú at Restaurante La Porteña. Joaquín has really outdone himself with this incredibly and dangerously delicious dessert. ;-)

Excellent we will give it a try……. Just really taking the time to breathe in and enjoy everything that we love about Zihua…… no rush as we are here for 3 weeks……for all of you that come here you know the feeling of being at peace at relaxing here …… one day soon we hope to be here much longer……..until then we are drinking up every minute…. Cause as someone one said you don’t know what you got till it’s gone…… will try to post a trip report at some point here but we are pretty stressed between the beach , pool, Victoria and trying to hit all of the excellent restaurants here

Looking forward to some trip reports! We are planning on arriving 1/30. I have read some things on a Mexican health questionnaire. Did you have to do something on line or is it included with the other forms prior to landing?
Thank you for any information you can provide!

They are trying to get people to do it online using the site below:

We didn’t do anything online. I think that there are forms you can do online and print out but we didn’t. WestJet gave us the custom declaration card on the plane and when we arrived we were given the tourist card to fill out by the Mexican officials/agents. Online may have been a bit quicker but wasn’t really any problem or long delay

Hey Grumpy! So glad you got to Zihua! Just got another 1.5 ft of snow overnight, so must be more out at the lake.
Wondering if you could pick me up a bottle of vanilla if it is not too much hassle. Almost out. I can come out to the lake to get it when you get home. Maybe I would wait a couple weeks until your tans fade, so I don't feel so bad!
