We are for the time being in Zihuatanejo Mexico, in the Playa La Ropa area near the south end of the bay. We are one of eleven RVs in the El Manglar RV Park, which is also the parking lot for the El Manglar Restaurant. Food is wonderful, the company is great, the ambience not perfect but suits us!
Temperature ranges up to about 30C from overnight lows in the mid teens. Humidity can be a bit high, -- some mornings the awnings are dripping but recently it has been very pleasant.
This week the restaurant began opening for breakfast after Memo, the owner, talking about it for years. We tried it out this morning as we were out of bread for toast and milk for cereal! Fresh local coffee got us started, we shared a fresh fruit salad, then a sausage and cheese frittata for Art and Super Chilaquiles for Gillian, fresh orange juice fresh squeezed from oranges directly from the family's orchard!
About Me
- Art and Gillian
- We are both retired and live with our dogs. Sadly we had to say goodbye this year to Tia. She adopted us in Zihautanejo 12 years ago and was at least 14 or 15 years old, very possibly older. Towards the end she was quite deaf and a bit senile but still a sweetheart. Finally her body just wore out, could barely walk and was unable to get back up on her feet. We miss her, but are thankful for the years we had with her. Last fall we found Prana, a 19 month old Yellow Lab/Golden Retriever cross. She is smart and lively and keeping us very busy, a sweet and friendly girl and gives us much joy as well as keeping us busy keeping her busy! November through March we exchange the rain, cloud and short days of home for hot and sunny Mexico. The rest of the time we enjoy our beautiful Vancouver Island, with the occasional flight to the UK and / or Europe.
