Road Trip With Friends

Our road trip in Mexico consists of four couples. Our first trip, a couple of years ago, was to the town of Tequila. We had such a great time that we decided to do it again, but to a different location. Unfortunately, one couple was unable to come this year because of a knee problem, so the six of us continued on.

 Our first stop was Santa Clara del Cobre, aka Copper Town. We spent the afternoon shopping, then drove to the small town of Patzcuaro

 










                                                                                  My husband finally bought himself a wedding band in Copper town. He grew out of his first one.

Club M

 We have found a little hole in the rock (literally) to have a beer or meal.






Our Secret Beach

 This beach never gets old! It's a bit out of the way, and you need wheels to get there, but its worth it. Quiet and secluded!



Daniel's

 Our favourite waiter works at Daniels. He is a true gentleman, who is kind and funny!

Zihua Development

There have been huge improvements to this small city. Fisherman's walk has had a major update. Construction is on the rise, and cleanup has improved. But hopefully, Zihua doesn't lose its traditional feel, quaintness and hospitality!

            There were so many iguanas that I couldn't get them all in the same frame.


 






Mornings at the Market

 The best way to pick up your fruits, veggies and meat is at the market. We usually go in the morning before the heat the day arrives. You literally can get everything you need at this market... from a stitch job to a plumbing piece, spices galore, a ready made meal, a smoothy, a tasty coffee, or a visit with a Mexican buddy that owns a shop and drags you in for a beer. I bought one of my favourite dresses here! We love this place, and we shop here daily!











Barra de Potosi

 Barra is a small village 20 minutes from Zihua. It's very quiet, and a great place for a meal, a beer or two, kayaking the mangroves, or a bit of shopping.
