parents report

Started March 1, 2006 · 11,851 views · 9 posts
So here is my parents report as they do not have a computer. They went up to where predator was shot. with a gentlemen they met at there hotel. they went by taxi and came back by bus. They had a nice meal while they were up there. PPl they knew from our town were on the same flight so they had a dinner with them another night which introduced them to more couples. They stayed at the rosita as i stated in another post because my dad has a bad hip. In there opinion its a great location, great price , The staff is amazing but they had a room on the street side and we had requested a ocean view because we read about the noise. But there was none available. Which my dad could have cared less cause he just took his hearing aid out lol my mom on the other hand had to listen to the noise she said though the only night it was really bad was saturday. But they said now they know for next year. Another night they went for a walk and came across a restraunt called MI RUEDA and they cant stop talkin about it great food great prices great staff and the owner was wonderfull. Another night they got together with all the ppl they met 11 in total and headed to maricious in ixtapa jalisco. Well this was there big night out they (not my dad) were doing shots of tequila my dad had a lobster tail,steak,piece of fish my mom had a trio shrimp plate there were fancy drinks, there were buckets of beer galore ,and so much tequila that the waiter finally just left the bottle and shot glasses on the table lol. What you will not believe is the total of the bill for this table of 11 ppl goin crazy with food and booze was only 172.00 us now thats insanely cheap or what. they then left and continued the party at el pescador good time by all (is what I am told.) They found our friend rogelio and gave him his gift from us I wrote some spanish on the card and I am told he almost cried we now have his email and he has ours hurray. When my parents went to check out they got there bill as they had charged all breakys and all lunches to there room you wont believe this 98.00 us for 7 days again cheap like borscht. And know surprise to me or tyler when they got home my dad gave us all this info to look into for renting a condo for 2-3 months. They had a great trip and loved everything but I am glad there home.

I forgot they took the trip to sayulita and they said the beach was beautiful but it wasnt for them it was to far away like me they want to be in old town pv.

A little insight on my parents in there 40s 50s they travelled every year to acapulco,cancun,ixtapa,pv,maztland,for about 12 yrs. They drove most of the time. And introduced mexico to me and 3 of my brothers. The younger ones were just beep out of luck lol.

Sounds like they had a blast!! Nice report. My sister, my friend and I are off on Saturday!! Cant wait!!!Looking forward to gaining back the 8 pounds I lost! :D
thanks michelle I hope you guys have a great trip looking forward to your trip report. Have a blast and a cervaza for moi. :D
Thanks for the report. Glad they had a good time. I have read alot of good reviews about Mi Rueda. Will have to add it to my list of restaurants to try this year and see if I can fit it in somewhere. Do you know or do they remember where it is?
lori the advertisement paper they gave me says colombia no 1057. norm says its 2 blocks up from the rosita and just over if that makes any sense.the owners name is miguel and the night they were there his niece and friend were the servers. there is also only about 14 to 18 tables. But as they said its fantastic. If you do go let me know your opnion

thanks
great report Michelle. i think in april we will have to try and find Mi Rueda as well. What do you think Lori and Jane? Think we can find this place and fit it into our schedules.
