This week we had some other visitors… These have no head, brain, heart, eyes, nor ears and no bones, either. Give up? Jellyfish… the best precautions are to look at the shoreline before entering the water. If stung… the best thing to do is come to my office where I have a stash of […]
I usually don’t write much about scorpions or snakes or other tourism killers but this is too interesting to pass up. A few days back a silver fox ran into an unnamed casa and grabbed the pant leg of the resident, Another woman inside the casa helped and fended off the beast. Within minutes the […]
This was by far the most extreme treatment and yet yielded the biggest reduction of the swelling of my leg. A local woman cleans the toad, with a local handmade soap and then oils the belly and rubs the toad all over the entire leg. The toad is then cleaned and released. The next day […]
To make a long story short the very next day after this last post, I woke with a massive fever and by the end of the day my good leg had swollen up… huge! After being threatened by the same doctor that I had tried to bribe the day before with a Yelapa pie […]
I rose before my neighbors blaring round of ranchero music and the daily roosters and braved yet another shockingly cold shower, at our Casa Iguana. On my list today was the purchase list for hooking up the electic water heater that I bought last year and never manifested hooking up. Being on top […]
If you need to touch base with me , today is a great day, as I will be working all day and night on back logged communications. I’m all about taking responsibility for my actions but my .mac account that receives all my email is my latest problem. My skype system is also having issues. […]
We just finished hosting a giant wedding and I am almost recovered. Tommorrow or should I say Mañana, I’ll be ready to assist you and give you the service you deserve. As always thanks for your patience….and for choosing to fly with palapainyelapa.com
Tonight, another of Yelapa’s restaurants opened and to rave reviews, as far as I’m concerned. Jeff and Tatianna’s, La Galeria, newly named, “Bistro Selvático” located in the trees overlooking the main beach offers a few special entries per night, complimented by large salads and homemade bread. I had the Filet Mignon with portabello mushrooms […]
Meet Luis Garcia Martinez , in case you haven’t met him. Luis is a master boatman and guide for all your boating needs, while on vacation in Yelapa. He speaks great English and is a professional, with the respect of safety. The green and white , green tarped “Iza 1″ is clean and fully set […]
Jake, Amy and Crew, representing Texas…just spent 7 days in Yelapa and officially opened the season by being the first big group. Eleven in total, they wined and dined and relaxed in style. Jake forwarded me this from one of the group.
Going back to work for me is JUST like being in Yelapa with a […]
What a treat to get a letter from an old friend today, born in Yelapa, he shares a short story… As a child growing up in Yelapa one of my jobs was to deliver notes. many of my days would start with my parents sending me off to Peggy’s at which point she […]
Our Aunt Theresa, who really should be called Saint Theresa, has made a 100 percent recovery! I never knew it was even medically possible! She’s doing so good that we tried to scare her… with no result. Gracias Adios!
In 1960, Yelapa was primitive and sweet. Our palapa was half way up the hill on the left looking out at the water. As all the palapas at the time, our floor was made of stones from the beach. There was a separate sleeping loft, a well, and a latrine. There was no electricity and […]
Tonight JoAnn sent me this email. I hope she doesn’t mind me sharing it… “I was in Yelepa in 1971 for about 6 months. It was a blast. We stayed in about 3 houses. One was near the beach and someone said that Ralph Waldon Emerson had stayed there ?? I remember all the interesting […]
