I use pretty much the same recipe as has been given here, sans the olive oil and sugar. Another version that makes a great low calorie snack. Jicama and orange slices cut into bite size pieces, very thinly sliced white onion, sliced cucumbers place it all together on a large plate, squeeze lime juic...

Mogens, your comments are an insult to the residents of this beautiful vacation and full time retirement area. Nothing is perfect anywhere except maybe in heaven....some of us are not ready for that yet. Maybe you need ask some of the "locals" who live in PV if they are insulted. OR try reading the...

There is a very primative road that goes to Yelapa but it is mainly used by locals. It is pretty much impassible in the rainy season as it crosses the rivers and they run really high and fast during the rainy season. Also it is not someplace you would want to get a rental car stuck, I am sure the re...

Asking people who have been on the boats to report to you any infringements of the law is a joke! Sorry, but if they are not versed in what the laws are, they are in no position to determine whether or not the laws were broken. I can give you an excellent example and this was from one of the people...

They do not ask you for a script for antibiotics and I have never been questioned in 17 years about anything I have brought back. Now if you brought enough to start a small pharmacy they might look at you as a person of interest, but what would be equivalent to personal usage they never seem to ques...

The new Cornerstone hospital is state of the art and they do accept US insurance. Ameri-Med and San Javiar also accept US ins. I do not know if you have to pay upfront and then they bill the insurance for you or not. You might also want to contact your insurance company and ask them what their proce...

I bring diet coke from the states down all the time. I don't really like the taste of coke light in Mx., it seems too sweet for me. I have a soft-sided cooler that I put it in already cold with a large blue ice and put it in my luggage. When I get down there it is still cold and I am usually ready f...

It was worth the trouble~
Talk about having confusing last names. When I married Vicki, her name was Vicki Davis. The last name had been her first (and short time Husbands) She did not want to go through the trouble of changing back to her Maiden name. So, professionally she is still Vicki Davis. Some things are now Vicki B...

Wills, Thanks for the recommendation. I am not sure Alberto would say the same about the offer of Cerviche. :P You didn't know how special you were that day did you? Well now you do. By the time he gets up at 5:00 a.m. and gets off the boat about 5:00 p.m. it takes a little bit of arm twisting, most...

Lori, Sorry, I just couldn't resist. :lol: I was down really early in the morning and the chair guy was always there, sometimes he was cleaning around the pool but he always came over to get me a chair. The Security guards were getting the chairs for the guests also. I think 5:15 is pushing it, sinc...

Also, do they still have extra umbrellas that you can get and have set up outside the roped off area? What time does the beach boys start in the morning? Thanks Lori, They still had the umbrellas last time I was there. The beach was not that crowded when I was down there. I had no problem getting a...

Lori, You can't remember after 10 years, I can't either but I have a cheat sheet. :D The main building where the lobby is is building "G". The 1st building on the beach on the left, facing the beach from the main building, is building 1, then 2 then G, on the right on the beach is 5, next back is 4 ...
