Arturo from Guadalajara and Emelia from London proprietors of Chacmool Coffee Shop are expecting in May.

Emelia had a good internet connection so we were able to catch up on e-mail and stuff.

This guy was constantly raking the sand in front of the palapa restaurants on Chacala’s main drag.

Rudy told us to tell other RVers with small rigs that they could park in front of this restaurant.

Our rig parked in front of Quezada restaurant where they offered us free overnight parking.

Main Street shop on the left side. This is the downtown. Must be some small stores catering to locals up the hill where the residences are.

Main Street stores on right side.

Happy Hour! Raymondo enjoying a cool one.

Beach at Chacala could not have been more than a quarter mile long. It was lovely and peaceful but we’d go crazy with the tranquility.

Beachside bar and restaurant popular with Mexicans serving huge drinks is at the far left end of the beach.

Fishing fleet. These boats are called pangas.

Far left end of the beach. We'd guess the entire beach is less than a mile long.

My joya (jewelry) purchase, very light weight plastic turquoise. Think it will look great with jeans and a white pullover.

Women on the other. Sitting this way has been the tradition for as long as anybody can remember.

Getting ready to play a game of In The Box, men on one side.

Ray with our grande licuado. It was pretty tasty.

Huge, huh?

Selling fish right on the beach. Michelle bought some excellent martlin.

Fish taco joint. Our tacos with each with two good size pieces of fish and trimmings cost a little over $1.00 apiece.

Steve and Joy from Kalispell, Montana invited us to join them for fish tacos. They have been coming and staying in a bungalow here for five years.

I love the dishes.

Pineapple crusher, strains the juice. Pretty efficient.
