I do believe that this article was written as a "tongue in cheek" and as an interesting read (although I do not know the author but his picture indicates "50 or so". The paper says this....Jack Knox writes a local news column Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, plus a Sunday piece - Slightly Skewed - th...

Haven't been reading the board much since we were in Mexico in Nov. but your report brought back great memories. We also had a glimpse of two whales, they only frolicked for a very short while but were seen by a lot of people. I did see the famous dive with the tail in the air...gorgeous. We also st...

I got a few 1000 small pesos and some US dollars for tipping and it cost me less than the amount that I got....when our money was this good 35 years ago, I couldn't afford to travel, then kids, etc. so in all the times we have been to Mexico, this is a FIRST. I lik...

Hey, yes, we will be there from the 3 to the 17th for our annual holiday. Last year the Buenaventura has a computer in the lobby but it wasn't wireless. All was good though and it was not too busy either. We are a group of 4 + 1 (two couples and one guy), Perhaps we will see you around. Donna :roll:...

Totally agree. View is unbelievable but food was totally substandard with some of our meals good and others uncooked and bland. We had taken a tour of the place during the afternoon one day just for a look around and decided to book for an alternate evening. My suggestion is to definitely visit it a...

Just thought I would add a pic taken in 2005 of the sandart we saw in early November. I did not take a picture this year ( actually in November of 2006) but we saw an artist making what I remembered to be exactly this same sandart. It was quite amazing. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/137/347373862_0...

Kay does a little barganing because she also pimps for them. she gets the treatment and there are so many other guests who asks what that is all about, she usually is able to send another 5-10 customers their way during our stay. I think she gives $5usd per day + tip. Usually the cost is between $7...
