Two days after Christmas all is very quiet here
in Las Jaibas RV Park. It finally cooled down again last night. Bill turned the
furnace on this morning to take the chill off. The sun is up but behind a sky
full of cloud.
Had a nice day Christmas day. Went out to
breakfast with our RV neighbors to the restaurant across the street. Then in
the late afternoon went to the big Christmas dinner here in the RV park.
Everyone was there including the people who work here. So much food. All seemed
to be having a good time.
The park is emptier then in previous years.
Manager is hoping more rigs show up after New Years. All the parks in Mazatlan
are much emptier. It’s strange as this year it is so much cheaper to be here
with the exchange rate. The RV park is US$15 a day full hookups including
electricity. When the five of us went out to breakfast at El Quelite the total
was less than US$35. Groceries are less expensive than last year. BUT – come
next week gasoline is expected to go UP! In fact read that some gas stations
are running out of gas because of people filling up and bringing containers to
fill up already.
We have a few plans for this week. Going out
for breakfast or lunch with Roberto and his family and waiting for the air
brush painter to deliver his sketch for the Jeep. Bill wants to go to town to
get some things for his hobbies at home and I discovered I brought some beads
to work with but forgot the needles and thread (a special thread.) Senior
moment I guess. But I can get them downtown too. Also will be trying to connect
with the cable Internet guy. But he is on Mexican time so…
We need to figure out what we are going to do
the rest of the winter. If we will be leaving here there is no sense to get the
Internet hook up – if staying I want it. Part of me wants to go – especially to
Guanajuato – so neat there and it will be a lot cooler. But it is 6500 feet
high! Altitude bothers Bill and sure slows me down now days. Decisions,
decisions!
Our RV Park will be fuller than normal come the New Year and our prices are much higher than yours. Must be the new paved road.
