Mexico is where I'm at now, with visiting family; it's great to have family here. Feels more like home.
We're exploring here and there, and a lot of times, just nearby.
Here are some pics of the charming little hotel down on our end of the island, La Joya.
They have now opened their small dining room, & are advertising breakfast,, lunch & dinner.
The hamburgers, fries and guac were wonderful, and not as pricey as some of the other special dishes.Here is Violet in the green chair of dining rm.
The dolphin outside the door was her very favorite thing.
The pool below the dining room.
They were so kind to let the kids use the pool (that was the deal, if we dined at their restaurant...). Wonderful!
And, to throw in some Mexican/Moroccan similarities: here are the girls in their djellabas (not sure I spelled it correctly). It's an Arabic word for that hooded, body covering robe they were.
It is the perfect solution for the intense sun here, without having to always resort to using sunblock.
I've always wanted a djellabah for myself...I wanted one 40 years ago, and I still do....
It was just one of the many things that never happened, though it's on the list!
Glad the girls have them tho--perfect for them.
And, another Mexican/Moroccan similarity: TILE.... love it! and here's a lovely doorway at La Joya.
Love the tile, and love the design... It's even a bit Moroccan, with that arched doorway. Good ideas...
