First Zihua Trip!

For new years eve, one of the most beautiful fireworks display we saw was New Years Eve 2012 at El Faro's at Pacifica. Watching the burst just about eye level over the water in front of the other hotels was simply beautiful. This was the first time I had seen the balloon flares and watching them launch from the edge of the golf course and float up and hit a little wind and float north along the beach front. This was a Bucket List option for us for Kathie wanted to have New Years Eve at El Faro's and celebrate her birthday in Ixtapa on Jan,5- when we were down earlier in Oct/Nov we were invited by the food service manager to a taste at 3 pm one afternoon of the New Years Eve Dinner at El Faro's( we were the only couple at the taste and the other 8 people were managers). Something to experience was the kitchen staff lined up with each entree at a time then sitting the dish down between 2 samplers in unison with the head Chef explaining each dish to the table and the owner explaining in English what the Chef had say- what a wonderful afternoon.
