    Puerto Penasco Home Port

    A friend explained one time that a Mexican kid will say, "Dad, it's a beautiful day for the Beach! Can we go?" The Dad will think a moment, "Work? Beach? Work will wait - my kid might not." And off they go to the beach. A US Dad will think, "Work? Beach? The beach (and my kid) can wait until...

    Earthquake

    In the late 50s a Prof at Caltech indicated that current thought was either a series of smaller quakes released pressure - or the reverse, indicated a big one was building - take your choice. He also thought the big one was due to hit California within 4 years. So the average Joe/Jane has as...

    I believe they have signs up leading to it - but then I got lost a lot :)

    Great time in PP. Want to come back!

    We lived there full time - during Semana Santa we made sure we didn't have to go anyplace as traffic wild. At Bella it was almost all families. If you want to see how the Mexican's observe a holiday it is a wonderful experience. If you want peace and quiet you will hate it. The pools (4 of them)...

    Advice needed for first time in PP

    Pane e Vino has great food and understand they do a Sunday brunch now. It is not Mexican food but it is a fun place to go and Luca & Karina are fantastic. A lot of the local people eat there. There are so many places to try and things to do that you'll have to keep coming back over and over...

    Safe in Puerto Penasco?

    My family has been going down to Penasco since 1948 and we always felt safe - and welcomed. Are there places I wouldn't go at night? Yeah - same as any town in the world. Have never worried about bringing down the kids and then the grand kids and now the greats. Have we had problems there? A...

    Satisfied Frog

    I think their official opening is Feb. 14 and this past weekend was to get some of the bugs out of the system - need to have consistent pricing and better pricing.

    Official Groundbreaking Ceremony for Home Cruise Port

    They will obviously need a safe, secure location - fenced and guarded - so that people aren't afraid to leave their car for 7 days. It is so close to AZ, CA, etc., that those people would find it easier and less expensive than flying in for the most part. Also assume they will have shuttles...

    Official Groundbreaking Ceremony for Home Cruise Port

    I understand that Governor Padres is attending the official groundbreaking ceremony for the Home Cruise Port today. If anyone on the forum attended would love to hear your report and see pictures. According to AccuWeather it looks like it is a beautiful day for it. Thank you.

    What is going on at the entrance to 13th Street?

    Ladyjeeper - most of them don't have a clue to the wonderful days they missed of the early Penasco. Other than the main drag all the roads were sand - or cliche (if you were lucky). We always traveled with a shovel and my Dad's nickname was 'Digger'. Water was really precious as it was hauled...

    What is going on at the entrance to 13th Street?

    I was there - and that is what it looked like. Think Ladyjeeper was there as well - she probably hung out with my kids :) Maybe that is why I never complain about the roads - I remember them 'when'!!!!

    Pano And Vino

    Last May Luca did the most fantastic Mother's Day brunch we had ever had (and since we've been around for at least a few years we've had a lot of brunches :) ) - Judging from that, I'm willing to bet that his new brunch at Pane e Vino is well worth going in for. But be warned, you might have to...

    Thank you for the translation - I had gotten some of it but your translation makes a lot more sense.

    Wierd scene coming into Rocky Point today.

    Can some one translate? I think I know what it says but not that sure of my Spanish - and too lazy to try to translate it elsewhere :)
