It’s going to be a Deet Weekend

The early morning sun was a bit warmer today (Saturday). The humidity was up a bit, but not too bad. We decided to walk the golf course around Agua Viva starting on the beach side for a change. Just a few steps onto the course and...

TGIF… but isn’t it always in Loreto

The week is over and it's time for some weekend in Loreto celebration. But before that can begin we took the proverbial daily trip to town to get "something forgotten." Since it was about lunch time anyway we headed to the Malecon first to introduce Tanni to...

Beauty of sunrises and hazards of falling tiles…only in Loreto

Tanni decided to take a sunrise walk this morning. Actually I think Mandy made the decision that it was time to get up and go out, so Tanni took a camera. The pool was quite peaceful as the sun was coming up and the weather was perfect....

Hump day in Loreto

Wednesday, October 7 was more than just getting over the middle of the week for many today. It was also the fall opening of Del Boracho. It was not as crowded as I would have expected, but it was definitely full of old friends and more poured in as the day...

It’s Tuesday on the island: Lizards, tires and bikers

Yes, it feels like a Jimmy Buffet day, today. The sun is out and the heat is rising fast. It did not feel as humid during my morning walk around the beach and golf course, so that is good. The beach is a bit of a mess from...

Sunday in Loreto

Sunday found the sun out again and the temperatures rising fast. This was a welcome change from the streets of Loreto yeterday (photo). It was 92 by the time we managed to get ourselves in to town and the Farmer's Market. Unfortunately we could have saved ourselves the...

Loreto weekend

The weekend has arrived, dark and dreary. Overnight the street in front of our Casita has been transformed into a swimming pool. Not as bad as the streets of Agua Viva, but enough to make walking the streets uncomfortable. The sun came out about 1:00 and we headed...

After Jimena

We arrived yesterday to light rain and some humidity.  The new terminal is "interesting" to say the least.  Some things are much more efficient while some processes remain the same.  Exit to the terminal is about the same as before.  We were then met with the "Health" group to...

We’ve Lost a Dear Friend

Guest post by Jane Lurie. The Loreto Bay community of homeowners has proven over and over again what a uniquely tight knit group we are....from banding together to assure the completion of the AV homes to organizing relief efforts for hurricane victims in our beloved Baja. We are a family, but...

Baja Relief from SF Bay Area Loreto Home Owners

The truck is loaded and Rick Lehman is on his way to Fresno where he'll join Ed Kashian to fill Ed's plane for a flight to Loreto with supplies. Once again Thank You to all the SF Bay area people that have helped with this effort as well...
