The other day I picked up guests for a Safari from The Grand Mayan Palace…what a trip! and I mean the lobby. Something right out of Disneyland… 6 or 8 giant 50 ft. Gods with there hand, palms out as they are asking for money and this giant totem with jungle music and all. Talk about strange!

I am on it.. truly! I recently have had three wild connections with friends from my past. My oldest friend on the earth, Russ popped back in life and so did Karen, who out of the blue,I had a thought about and a day later, after almost 40 years, she emailed me and tonight… Fred, my friend from old Yelapa that is currently in Thailand shared an electronic hour with me. I really cant believe it … I can create.. direct from my thoughts…wow…who is next?

I had a 3pm MTG today at the airport. I got there and Juan couldn’t make it so I decided to go across the street and kill some time over a Marlin Burrito. (located across the bridge) As I looked down the way came a familiar face. Hari? nah..must be another bearded jewish guy of the same brand…Brad? WOW!!! Unbelievable! Hari was in a near by town and even took the energy to make a visit to look me up in Yelapa but I was not to be found. Here we were on the same path, going to the same restaurant, at the very same time. Hari is a friend from my past life in Sonoma County and one I’ve known for 25 plus years. It was so cool to enjoy a meal and tell stories. I always remember the time when I used to volunteer to help people move and one the hardest moves in my life was for him…An author..with a collection of books that filled a house and beyond. We both reveled in the power we hold. Life is amazing!

The Point just isn’t the same without Isabel.

Speaking of Adventures…Gerardo and his Son, Jairon have launched a new website for their company. I highly recommend them. Mention palapainyelapa and you will get completely taken care of.

I finally got around to building a page for the Backroad Cultural Safari’s I plan to offer this season. I am always happy when Im on tour. Sitting here I can vividly remember the numerous groups of friends that have gone with me in the past. I can’t wait for this seasons adventures. More info soon.

I guess you been gone too long in Yelapa when you return home to find a new beach. A few weeks back, the mouth of the river had taken all beach on the right side away and now a sweet little arrival and departure beach has arrived right in front of my office. Actually this was the first year in more than thirty five that the little beach to the right of the river had stayed for more than a year. I took this photo just before a fantastic four hour rain came down.
