Poqueno Pueblo ... Gran Corazon

Yvonne and I first traveled to this area of Mexico earlier last year .. on the 31 January 2020 .. and ended up leaving early on 16 March 2020, because of the Covid-19 virus ... so the decision to return here on the 7 December 2020 was not taken lightly ... Yvonne and I followed all protocols while traveling.. as did all the airlines .. and even though we traveled separately .. we both arrived virus free .. and we continue to follow all protocols daily ... Dr. Fauci's six things you must do to avoid catching the virus has served us very well. You can read more about the small town we are in and find all kinds of interesting facts and info by going to this website .. so I am not going to repeat that. Let me start off this blog by stating some subjective observations from my walks .. and Yvonne's bike rides ... around the town .. the population here appears to be 65% age 21 and under ... there are babies and young children everywhere ... on foot .. on bikes .. on scooters .. on m...

I have a Pixel 2 phone .. and it recognizes everything they are playing ... so I ca...

Luz Que Viaja

Last century ... Yvonne and I lived close to the shores of the Canadian side of Lake Huron ... and the little town where we lived was noted for its sunsets ... I think it was even written up in National Geographic for this unique feature .. the sunsets all thanks to our friends on the other side of the lake continuously emitting tons of greenhouse gases and associated metal contaminants to the atmosphere ... I photographed a few of those sunsets and many since ... in Europe .. the US .. Asia and other parts of Canada ... but the sunsets here in Melaque ... and possibly all along the Pacific Coast of Mexico ... rival any I have seen. There is also a location here that has the best 'light' I have seen at sunset .. and that is the Albatros bar on the beach .. conveniently located not too far away from away from our apartment I might add .. this is the kind of light film directors dream of .. as well as photographers .. and anyone chasing the 'light fantastic'. There are tw...
