Bonaire Landsailing Adventures

If you have never been landsailing, you are missing out on an experience of a lifetime.  

Glow Beauty Studio in Puerto Aventuras, Mexico

I love pampering myself with manicures, pedicures, facials, massages, etc.  So, when a new spa or salon opens in the area, I’m the first in line.  

Glow Beauty Studio is in Central Park in Puerto Aventuras, Mexico.  It is a small salon, that packs a punch.  They have two pedicure stations, two manicure stations, and one hair station.  The décor is simple, yet elegant with soft spa music playing in the background.  It’s impeccably clean and the receptionist is very charming and engaging.  And although their English is not that great (neither is my Spanish, with the use of a translation app, we managed).

Chedraui Grocery Store Home Delivery Service – Puerto Aventuras, Mexico

I recently had the opportunity to test the Chedraui Grocery Store Home Delivery Service.  I must admit that I had been nervous about someone else selecting my grocery items, especially fruit and vegetables.  I imagined that the person would be half asleep, just grabbing the first item they see, throw it in the cart, and that’s it. But I wanted to give it a try and see what happens.  If my fears were confirmed, no big deal, a few pesos lost.  But if my experience turned out to be positive, then I had everything to gain, especially if I found myself in a situation where I was unable to walk to the grocery store.

FMM form going digital – pilot project

CHANGE IS THE ONLY CONSTANT.  In April and May of 2022, I wrote about changes and updates in the Multiple Migratory Format (FMM) form procedure and the 180-day limit for tourists in Mexico.  Now, the latest and greatest is that the National Migration Institute (INM) office wants to move toward a paperless system due to the continued requests by the Mexican Caribbean Tourism business to reduce INM wait times at the airport and better track visitors to Mexico.

Casa Rivieras Restaurant - Playa del Carmen, México

If you’re headed into Playa del Carmen, Mexico to shop at your nearby Sam’s Club, City Club, Centro Maya shopping center or any of the shops in the area, don’t forget to eat a good breakfast. Yes, I know you can always grab something quick at the food court in Centro Maya, but why not treat yourself to a nice patio breakfast at the Casa Rivieras Restaurant, nestled in a little strip mall between Sam’s Club and Hospiten Hospital.

MUNCHY’S SPORTS BAR – PUERTO AVENTURAS, MEXICO

You don’t have to be a sports enthusiast to enjoy the excellent food and great ambiance at Munchy’s Sports Bar, located in Puerto Aventuras, Mexico.

Although the bar is brimming with large screen televisions, pool tables, air hockey and foosball games, we have never watched a game there.  We go for the food!
