Catching Up

As our time in Puerto Escondido comes down to the last few weeks, I'm trying to add some more photos. They are a bit random but they give a sense of our time here. On St. Patrick's Day we were invited to a party next door. Elaine and Lorne are such great partygivers. We met some new people and saw "old" friends as well. It was great fun and we only had to step out of their condo turn left and enter our condo!The food was great too. We also met a woman from Chila who has a restaurant there. We will make a point of finding it.
Last night we visited Heather and Wayne in their beautiful condo looking over the water and to the west. New buildings will change their view but it will still be beautiful. People often host simple sunset parties. A few appetizers and some wine or beer and everyone leaves by 7:30 or 8:00 and go back to have dinner in their own condos. Very easy entertaining.
One of our friends has a drone and he has taken some amazing videos and photos with it. I have shared photos of Gary's amazing house that I know I've mentioned before. I LOVE his house.
We went our for dinner with some friends recently and heard some live music at the restaurant Fresh that we have visited before. The evening was beautiful and we enjoyed our time with our friends.
Today we went in search of Malu's Restaurant in Chila. Chila is so much closer and quieter than Puerto Escondido. I now go there for fruits and vegetables and we enjoy exploring the streets. Malu is the person we met on St. Patrick's Day . We found the restaurant and really enjoyed our lunch of garlic fish filet and potatoes and salad. Tom had two beers (20 pesos) and I had limonada (30 pesos each). Nothing is cheaper to drink than beer here. The total bill was 250 pesos including a big tip. That's about $17.50 CDN. We were the only people their and we had a good time with Malu. We communicated using google translator. That was interesting! We were the only people in the restaurant.
Many of our friends are leaving each day. So there are many goodbyes and more to come.
