Happy Valentine’s Day! A very special day for husbands and wives, boyfriends and girlfriends, friends

and lovers, those with a significant others and, of course, retailers and restaurateurs! Have a wonderful day!

What a storm! For all the damage that was done, there was very little reporting on it. There are rumors about what it was, but what we know for sure is this awesome community all got together and cleaned it up in record time! For some great pictures taken the morning after, please check out www.buceriasnews.com. Over 9500 people have looked at it in the last 8 days. Too bad good news doesn’t travel as fast!

We are planning a whale watching/bay tour and some snorkeling for the 23rd of February. We did this same tour at the end of December and we had a blast!  Invite your friends and make a party of it! The boat seats 130 people but we are limiting the tickets to 60 so we can travel a little faster. We will be out on the water for 6 hours and the cost is only $300 pesos per person. Tickets are going fast so it is first come first served. There will NOT be tickets sold on the day of departure.  After the 16th, they will be $400 pesos each.  Email us for more information at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

This is not in Bucerias, but there is a definite buzz here because Rancho Limon of Las Palmas, Jalisco, is offering a new service to deliver locally grown produce.  They have been growing organic salads, tomatoes, herbs, tropical fruit, and vegetables for over 25 years and are now offering delivery twice a week on Wed and Sat.  If you order a box of assorted freshly picked, washed and sterilized produce for $150 pesos, you will get free delivery.  Call Dana at 044 322 109 3411 or 322 297 7857 to place your order.
