Thanks for the correction. Kateri's shop is called K'asbah Bon Vivants. I have seen the other shop called Mostly Chocolate but we haven't stopped in there yet.
Love your blog! Carolyn, I absolutely love reading your blog entries! It makes my day when I see new updates in my email. I'm from Halifax, Nova Scotia, but I'll be moving this summer to live in Ajijic, and have been researching everything online about the area for 18 months now. I visited Ajijic for a week last spring, and fell in love with it immediately! Your blog and photos make my research that much more interesting and personalized. Thank you and I hope that we get to meet once I move there! Sue.
Thanks Sue Sue, thanks for your comments. Sorry I'm behind in my updates but I'm going to work on it this week. I have a good friend who lives in Bridgewater Nova Scotia, are you anywhere near there?
Ajijic is an amazing place to live we are loving it but we will be gone by the first of May.
Catrina, huh? Uh, huh. That your date, Rick? Not to question your taste but...she's kinda tall. And bony; a mere skeleton. I think you should stick with the babe you've got.
Did you purchase or rent your home in Riberas de Pilar? Love the photos....furniture and decorations are gorgeous! I will be moving to Ajijic next year, and am looking at renting. Is your home within walking distance of Ajijic Centro?
Did you purchase or rent your home in Riberas de Pilar? Sue, we are renting. It is possible to walk to Ajijic Centro but difficult due to the stone roads and sidewalks. We have walked it a few times. The local buses are frequent and easy to use so it isn't necessary to walk it.
We are located closer to San Antonio than most homes in Riberas Pilar. In fact the San Antonio Plaza is only a few blocks away.
We made our rental arrangements through Ana at

Rick and I are Canadians who retired in 1999. At that time Rick made me a promise that I would only see snow again should I wish too. I did not wish to then or now.
We prepared our sailboat, Wind-Borne III (Bayfield 36) to sail south to the Caribbean. We lived aboard and island hopped in the Caribbean for 6 years and then in 2007 became part time cruisers, spending our winter months island hopping and the summer months back in Canada. Recently we sold the boat and have been spending the winter months living on a little island, Carriacou in the Caribbean and again spending the summer months... full info
