It's seems like days since I last updated my blog here in Ajijic. I have to say that it's very clear to me now that my ability to play any form of an aggressive game of tennis is "only in my mind". I played doubles yesterday morning and let me tell you it's definitely not like riding a bike. It's been 18 years since I held my racket and it showed. Final score was 1-6, 3-6 and yes we won in a tie breaker for the third set 7-6. The only downside to this physical a...

Things are still good here. We took Catherine & John into town early this morning as they both had a doctor's appointment which required us to drive them home after the procedure. With having John's SUV we took a drive through town and headed towards Jocotopec (a town at the very west end of Lake Chapala) just to see some of the terrain and local sites. I couldn't believe the amount of Tope's along the route. A tope is a huge speed bump that they position eve...

Guadalajara is about a 45 minutes drive to Costco but once you arrive and get inside you'd swear that you were in Costco Abbotsford - except - the hot dog and drink price at on top of was priced at 23.50 Pesos in...

We arrived here in Guadalajara this morning at 5:30 a.m. just as the sun was breaking the horizon. It was a longer trip that I thought it had to be given that we had to go from Vancouver to Portland, OR then San Francisco and then to Guad. We basically flew all night with two stops along the way. John and Catherine came all the way out to Guadalajara to pick us up and get us back into Ajijic. As I've said you guys are AMAZING. Once we finished the 30 minute or s...
