    Shrimp & Red Snapper

    Went to the fish market today - Jumbo Blues were $6/lb; browns $5/lb. Paid $1 for a big Red Snapper fillet. DS doen't bargain - but ended up with extra shrimp. So fresh there was NO fishy smell at all! They all said the Snapper didn't have one bone and it was excellent - best they had had (I'm...

    Consignment Shop

    Which side of the street is it on? And about where? Have taken friends shopping along Rodeo Drive but have never seen a furniture store, except Eddies (is his sale still going on? Ages ago we were in there but prices seemed high). Tks.

    Consignment Shop

    Does anyone know where the consignment shop that was in the old port moved to? I heard somewhere on Fremont - but didn't spot it while driving up and down. Kids looking for a dresser and chair. Tks.

    Aqui Es Con Flavio

    Could be. We were at a furniture store and the lady gave my DD a flyer - and I thought she said they just opened. DD took the flyer back to Vegas and gave it to some friends. We've never been there. DS wants good - old fashioned - Mexican food like he remembered as a kid here. Went to La Curva...

    Arturo's Shell Shop

    Today we ran into Arturo's nephew (by chance) at the bank and he and DS compared notes for when they sold shells on the beach to the tourists when they were kids - both were paid in shells and have a beautiul collection. Wore wooden trays. DS would make his little brother go with him as a...

    Getting an FMM

    They came across the border last night about 8:30pm - one car in front of them. They were the only ones in immigration. It was a breeze - the guy took their passports, filled out the form for them - had them sign them & pay and they were on their way. As long as the border is open the...

    Getting an FMM

    They called the Phoenix and Tucson consulates and both are closed for the holiday. And I did remember that at least last year you couldn't get your visa at them. We were bringing El Gato down end of Sept. and knew how hot would it would and tried to get it done ahead of time - no dice. So one of...

    Getting an FMM

    Our DD has to get an FMM as she is applying for an FM3 Monday morning. But they are completely goofed up and not crossing the border until about 8pm tonight. Does anyone know if she can get it at that time of night? Or can she apply for it down here at the same time she is applying for her...

    Banco Interacciones in Peñasco - location

    Can anyone give me directions to the Banco Interacciones (coming from the Sandy Beach area). I've probably driven by it a lot and just never paid attention. Tks.

    Independence Day - dias y seis de Septiembre

    Thanks for the info. I've been reading up on it (forgot just about everything I knew). One paper I read, written in 1847, said that Hidalgo got really irriated when they came and cut down and burnt his vineyard and that was when he got into plotting. They should have known better then to ever...
