    Donuts - ala krispy Kreme?

    Does anyone know of a good place to get donut down here that are ala Krispy Kreme or even Dunk' Donuts? DH has tried Super Ley, the Bodega, Candy Cake, a place just off of Freemont - none of them come close to his rememberence of Krispy Kreme.

    New Intersection from Coastal Highway

    I would guess when it is finished it might be an even easier way to getting to Sandy Beach coming down from Lukeville - cut off some town traffic.

    Tiburones Baseball - A Great Summer Night

    We'll be there. It was such a fantastic place to take kids. The tourists that come down with their families and are looking for something for the kids at night don't know what they are missing. I would imagine the Little League games are wonderful too. Our grandson is hopefully coming down in...

    Tiburones Baseball - A Great Summer Night

    If you haven't gone to one of the Tiburones' baseball games you are missing out on an old fashioned summer night memory. We went last night - splurged on the best seats in the house - behind home base - and paid $100 pesos (about $8 +/-) for the two of us. Met friends there - and met some new...

    First Timer to Las Palomas and Puerto Penasco

    So glad you had a wonderful time. I started coming down here when I was a kid (1948) - we fell in love with the people and the beach (wasn't much else in those days). We ended up buying in Bella Sirena - which has beautiful grounds - fantastic staff - great views & pools. It is more family...

    Cruise Ships

    It might take an awful long time to ferry supplies and passengers that way!

    Cruise Ships

    Any idea as to what cruise line? I know Holland America had committed sometime ago but think they pulled out when nothing happened.

    We're getting married!

    I know they have held weddings at Bella Sirena and they have been truly lovely - have a pole-like arrangement on the grass above the beach, with white drapery and last time we noticed roses attached to them - rows of white chairs - then tables and chairs are set up by the pool for the reception...

    A day in Penasco

    It is soooo dangerous here - watched three little girls get their kite entangled in a palm tree & they couldn't get it undone. Before they could begin to wimper 2 of our guards showed up to come to their rescue and had the kite loose in minutes. The girls happily went back to the beach to fly it...

    resort suggestions for first stay

    Bella Sirena has some of the most beautiful grounds of any of the condos - we watch kids playing games on the grass - 4 different pools - palapas on the beach - great swim up bar - music can only go until 10pm - we find it to be more of a family resort then "spring break kids" type of place. It...

    shuttle services???

    Our Granddaughter used Head out to Rocky Point for Spring Break and really enjoyed the driver(s) both ways. Said she managed to sleep both ways - coming down took a LOT of sleep power as all the ASU students were already in party mode! At least at that time they had the best price too.

    La Cita Cafe

    Is this the same La Cita that used to be at the old port? Such wonderful memories of that place!!!! Especially the 25 cent big blue shrimp cocktail served in an old fashioned milk shake glass. Oh, I guess that does date me somewhat :) What street is the bakery on?

    Medical Tourism in Mexico

    Now Medicare has to figure out they could save money by utilizing Mexico's medical system - would be wonderful for ex-Pats as we have to pay into the system whether we can use it or not. Or maybe that is why they don't want to allow it.

    The Dangers of Rocky Point

    Biggest danger I saw was "who on earth would want to leave!" - we ended up staying :)

    Two fisherman lost

    Just read on Numerouno where a boat with two fishermen (41 & 19) went missing yesterday - it was mentioned that they are going to have a place searching this morning - and ground searches (our prayers are with the missing fishermen, their families and the searchers). Has anyone heard anything...

    Western Tanagers & other birds

    Our neighbor under us has a hummingbird feeder and so we get to see them all the time - hummingbirds are my favorite I think - love the owls too. A week and a half ago our son (visiting from St Louis area) started yelling for the family to come see an Ospray holding a BIG fish under it's belly -...
