Very delayed trip report, February 2015

After our 9th or 10th trip, I'm just going to touch on highlights.

*We shortened our stay in Zihua because of the beach Dog Ban. All for nothing. We keep Gus, our chihuahua, on a leash and never interacted with any doggy police. Elvira's, our go-to beach restaurant, assured us that everything was cool.

*Shopped at Lupita's, Gus & Lola really hit it off! Brought a beautiful top and dropped off a bottle of rum for Rob and his mojitos.

*Stayed at Casa Iguana for the 6th time. Can't imagine a better place w/ a better host than Jöel!

*Shopped for our usual coffee, tequila & cigars while we were still in town.

*Spent 10 day in Troncones at La Sirena for the 2nd time, can't imagine a better place w/ better hosts than Mike & Debbie.

*Met some great people at La Sirena that really helped show us the ropes in regards to the fruit/fish trucks. The trucks are the only thing to rouse people on the beach or around the pool. The best mangos I've ever had!

*Beautiful dinner at Eden.

*Even more beautiful dinner at Inn at Manzanillo Bay. Met Belen, ran into Wil and completely fell in love with Edgar, Miguel y Roberto. If you ever have the chance to see them . . . do it!

*Ate at all the usual place in Troncones, everywhere was delish, particularly Chendo's seafood rellenos, he never disappoints. La Mexicana keeps getting better and better.

*Read 3 books on my kindle.

*After all these years, beginning with stays in Ixtapa via Apple Vacations, Zihua is now feels like the big city.

*February 2016 already booked, counting the days.
