Getting settled in

We were getting pretty settled into our house. With so many board members in town, we were busy, too. We went to the beach a couple times with Kevin and Stephanie and ate at Isla Marias near the airport. We were pleasantly surprised when they treated us to dinner. It was lots of fun hanging around with them. We are looking forward to their return with the whole family maybe in May. After a quick stop at Pie in the Sky, we dropped them off at the airport on Monday afternoon. Too bad they had to leave before the “party circuit” started.
On Tuesday, we met Sandy and her sister Barb at the airport. They went to check in at the Eloisa. I felt like a concierge showing them how to run the AC, where the switches were for the lights and fans, and how to adjust the fans.
We went right over to the cocktail party at La Escondida, hosted by Dave. There was a big crowd and everyone was enjoying the chance to catch up with board members new and old. After the party, a group of us went to Encanto. We had never been there before. It was very good.
The next day was the annual pool party at the Velas, hosted by Howard and Vicki. PVDeb counted 69 board members and guests in attendance. There was a buffet lunch and the drinks were flowing! We were surprised that not many people went into the pool. The Velas is beautiful and everyone had a great time. After the party, we gave board member focsle (Mark) and his wife Linda a ride back to La Cruz. You can really see where the marina construction is taking place.
Sandy and Barb came to Bucerias to visit us on Friday. We gave them the two-peso Bucerias tour and then enjoyed a relaxing lunch at Adauto’s. By the time we got in gear and got into town, we almost missed the crowd at CyC. After happy hour, we joined several other board members for a delicious dinner at CafĂ© Bohemio. The food there is really good, and the owner Sol is a hoot! Everyone enjoyed their food and the company was super as well.
