    Rocky Point removed from Mexico travel warning.

    Well that's good . . . except the AzCentral article is far from inspiring or promotional. Rather, it almost comes across as a reluctant confession.

    what is up with all the not finished hotels

    As mis2810 points out, after the bust in the US, the effects were soon realized in Rocky Point. That, coupled with fear mongering by the not-so-highly-trustworthy mainstream media brought things to a halt.

    So just how safe is Mexico? A new website trys to sort it out!

    While I follow Luna's experience and philosophy, I appreciate Jerry's update. It never hurts to be aware when the wind picks up or shifts now and then.

    Blowing Yet Again (still?)

    I, too, was afraid to ask. Now I'm thinking I'm sorry that you did.

    The Feds want your global income

    Agree, Stuart. Conditions and events that would have in the past been considered intolerable, and subject to drastic, urgent, mass intervention now seem to merely distract us from our texting for a moment.

    The Feds want your global income

    With respect, to that I would only add: If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck,and quacks like a duck, it could be a duck . . . unless the image has been processed, manipulated and projected in 3D while being purported by media to be a duck.

    Weather 7/19/2013

    You're killing me! I picture those monsoon days on the beach . . . overcast . . . breezy . . . toes in the water . . . hardly a soul around . . . margarita in hand. Sigh . . . wish I were there.

    What can you bring? What can't you bring?

    You do have a point, AZfish. I know I won't get any sympathy here, but as a vegan, I'm not going to find dairy-free milk, mayo, "butter," "cheese," etc. And my dog has allergies, and therefore eats very specific food. Also, I do a lot of entertaining. We caravan with friends, arrive at the...

    Southeast from town in increasing distance from town is Las Conchas, Encanto, Dorada, Miramar, Mayan Palace.

    Reviews of restaurants.

    Over 20 years I have yet to find another restaurant in Rocky Point where the food is good, the margaritas fresh and outstanding, and the view to die for. There are many places with good eats, but to me, nothing comes close to the total Casa Del Capitan experience.

    Adobe Ovens built to order

    I’ve read that dough sticking to the pizza peel when being transferred to the oven or grill is a common problem. That can be resolved by: 1. Forming the dough on a counter or cutting board before transferring it to the peel 2. Top it quickly (unless you do the bake-turn-top-and-bake...

    Adobe Ovens built to order

    Looks like you have a good start on those pizzas. Suggestion: Drop the plain, formed dough in the oven until lightly browned on the bottom. Remove from oven, flip, add toppings to browned side and place back in the oven.

    Tortillas

    True, some don't want to think that this fat might be as healthful or better than that fat. But there are others . . . admittedly few . . . who eat only plant-based things. Non-lard tortillas are likely nonexistent in RP, but I couldn't help but check.

    Tortillas

    I don't suppose anyone knows of a tortilleria that makes them without lard?

    Donations?

    When those often-chubby, cute kids ask for handouts, I respond, "Okay -- and what will you do for me?

    Vegas flights

    Well, I may have been convinced of a delay from hearsay on the thread: "Cruise ships (any new info)" But more recent comments there suggest that things are still on track.

    Vegas flights

    With the cruise-line delay, it will be interesting to see if current tourism alone can support these costly flights long term.

    Vegas flights

    . . . and if anyone will be on board? (Just wondering how that'll pan out, at these prices.)

    Boarder crossing, everything we need to know.

    Agree with your aversion to inoculations. My pets have about a .001% chance of getting Rabies, even in Mexico, based on their comings, goings and supervision. I HATE having to comply with the one-year Mexico rule which is also common in US states that have higher incidence of Rabies. It is...
