5C's Que Pasa

Not us or the girls but our home on wheels. It wasn’t the road that got us but rather the boulders lining the road after we did the left at the Bienvenudos sign.  It is somewhat cleared up but another quick left had us scrape the bottom of a basement door!  Hopefully we can get [...]

We are still having night visits from our resident iguana but now we think he may have a mate.  Last night as were having a late dinner dinner Colin spotted a wee one scurry across the carpet.  Actually it was more of a gecko but maybe it was (note the past tense) an iguana baby!!! [...]

It’s difficult getting good pot, oops I mean pots here in Mazatlan.  We do manage to find new macetas every year but it is a challenge.   Last year on our way to visit friends in Teacapan we saw some.  However this year the memory of the exact location was somewhat of a problem.  So [...]

No not the movie but our very own experience.  This guy has been spotted going in & out of the RV parked to our right, which stays here year round. A week ago we were awoken by a rustling sound in the wall next to the head of Colin’s side of the bed.  Colin just [...]

A few RV’s here at Tres Amigos have spent the night at a Pemex, a few even being the only RV there. It’s your call, but I suggest a word of caution.  This is an account of an incident that happened Nov. 13, 2010 by a Canadian. Further comments on this incident can be found at [...]

Tres Amigos celebrated Brent’s 61 st birthday at sunset Nov. 11th.  We are now 16 RV’s strong.  Sorry Ken that you arrived to electrical problems. Thanks Donna for the most delicious Sublime Chocolate Cake ever made.  Very yummy!!  It was otherwise quiet today, as the Carnival cruise ship was being towed back to San Diego [...]

…to steps to the beach and in & out of our RV.  We hired a local Mr. Fix It/Carpenter called Rene to build us some secure steps to the beach.  First he had to go and cut down a coco as he calls it, then cut it up into various size pieces of wood. Rene [...]

When your bed is full of sand every night.  It doesn’t matter how carefully you clean off those doggie paws! When the Pacifico truck needs to be pulled off the beach by a tractor!! When each day ends with a beautiful sunset!

…we have been here a week now but are still setting up.  Four more rv’s arrived yesterday, so the ranks are starting to fill in.  Still having internet issues at RV1 but help is on the way so they say.  Yesterday I went into Mazatlan with a friend for lunch and to get my Mexican [...]

The Tres Amigos RV Park here on the Isla is actually  one park but in two locations.  RV1 is a smaller park, next to it is Cordon’s Restaurant, a private home, the Maria Coral Hotel and finally RV2, a much larger park.  We go back & forth either via the beach or the road behind [...]
