When we purchased our condo in Puerto Aventuras, Mexico, we were informed that we would need to pay our property tax each year through the Solidaridad municipality. We did much investigating regarding how to pay property taxes on forums, webpages, etc. We discovered that with our clave catastral (property registry) number that is found on our property deed, we could look up our property tax bill on the Solidaridad website.
The Xenote Restaurant at the Omni Beach Resort is usually our favorite place to dine. So it was only natural for us to make reservations for their Christmas dinner. They had a special menu which included the cost of a three-course meal, dessert, two glasses of sparkling (which was either wine or champagne), tax and tips. Now before we made our reservations, we noticed that the special Christmas dinner only featured two all meat entrees; turkey and beef. Upon noticing this, we felt discouraged and mentioned to our server that we would love to participate, but since one of us does not eat any meat or dairy products, we would have to pass.
We want to briefly discuss and share with you how we manage our telecommunications while living in Puerto Aventuras, Mexico.

No. My husband and I are not honeymooners. In fact, we have not been honeymooners for over 15 years; although we have taken our share of honeymoons.
But the word "honeymooners" is what we are often referred to as we hold hands walking up and down the famous 5th avenue in Playa del Carmen.
