Well yeah . . . stop. But then don’t, like, get out and lay face down on the pavement spread-eagle style and wait. Just go . . . .

While “feeling of safety” enters into the decision factor in travelling to Penasco, there are also some of us who – like me – have traveled there once a month for over 20 years . . .and others who live there permanently. If there were a safety concern, they (we) wouldn’t be doing that. That...

Yeah -- like I said, there are actually 2 more cruises already booked. (Okay, so I had no idea what I was talking about . . . ) Anyway, good to know there were more takers . . .

There were originally a number of cruises scheduled for fall / winter, but lack of response brought it down to this one. There really hadn’t been much of an advertising campaign, which could be the problem rather than lack of interest. In any case, at this point any repeat performance seems...

Thanks loads. I’ve been telling everyone who asks to be very afraid to travel to Penasco. Now that you’ve blown that line . . . . there goes the quiet beach and my favorite table at the restaurant.

Well for starters, media generally forgot to mention that those “recent graves” were actually dug many years ago. They were merely discovered recently. The shooting story was also poorly represented. Not to diminish tragic events, but (since you asked for opinions), in a nutshell: The...

I know I’ve always been nervous about travelling to Penasco over the last 20 years – on that north-of-the-border segment of the trip, that is, which is always dicey.

Totally agree. In fact -- except for the 25-mph-in-Sonoyta rule -- your advice would apply to anywhere in The States as well.

Thing is, one person's “isolation problem” is another person's benefit. Depends on how you choose to spend your time. A 20 minute ride into town for dinner once a week is to some, merely a side trip during their beach getaway . . .

“Expatriate” is a term similar to, say, “propaganda.” They both can be used with a positive or negative connotation, depending upon context. An expatriate can be merely someone residing in a foreign land, or alternatively, one who denounced or is in exile from their home land. Propaganda can...

But even in those days, after dutifully getting the visa, the requirement to produce it during that stay was unheard of . . .

Yep -- to support Roberto's advice, the only time over 20+ years that I have been asked to submit a visa is to purchase property. And even then, I was advised (in Mexico) to obtain that at my convenience, such as on my next trip down. . . . ,

If you’re looking to escape craziness, high crime and “areas of forgotten past,” search the southeastern beaches beyond Mirador and as far as Mayan Palace.

Tell me about it. I was among traffic caught in it just as they arrived to close the road, but after having entered the flood zone. (What appeared to have been a broken water main was recognized as sewage -- right about when the "liquid" was at the top of the tires, and there was nothing left...

No, Kenny. I'm quite partisan. But I just don't share it here. And I didn't seek you out. I merely locked onto the one who made the first predatory comment on this thread, and called it out.

The “slamming” has – for years – come from both sides. And yes – the lack of response is okay with me because to respond to partisan comments on this venue is to take the bait.

Why, it doesn't count with me because I signed up for a forum that forbids political discussion, and then I abide by my commitment.

Kenny, have you noticed at this hour, the sun as it plays upon the water? It looks somewhat like sequins. And at sunset -- wow! The colors are amazing. Earlier this week, I helped a stranded Mexicano who took a wrong turn and high-ended himself on the sand en route to Mayan with a delivery...

Kenny, just say’n (lovingly, mind you!) -- you’re kinda looking like a beached fish flopp'n around. If this were a forum for political discourse, some might amuse themselves by jumping in to challenge you. But it is a forum for a Penasco community who has no interest nor authorization to...

There, there, Kenny. Have a nice day.
