~~Day 13  “Old & New Adventures with New Friends”


Good Morning!


A lazy morning again today….resting up for a busy afternoon!  Just after lunch we’re off on our moped to meet up with Keith and Elisa at Playa Lancheros.  We haven’t been there in years.  We loved it on our first trip in 2003…the fish was sooo good.  When we went again a few years later, it wasn’t so good so we just haven’t ventured back.

We arrive to find Keith and Elisa already seated at a table in the sand…perfect!  Drinks are ordered and then we order Tik-n-xic.   I know it takes time to grill the fish so we get comfy.  The scenery is great….this must be all the daytrippers from the nude beach next door.  Very busy dock.


The fish arrives….dig in!



So, you know what they say….nothing is ever as good as it was the first time.  And in this case, yeah…it was okay but nothing that I would make a point of going back for.  And the service was zero.   The waitress never came back after bringing the fish.  No worries, we just fetched our own drinks. 

So, let’s continue on to somewhere new!  We’ve heard good things about this newly opened place…Capitan Dulches.  Wow…so nice!  Beautiful grounds, super clean bathrooms, great bar, nice view, and friendly, attentive service!  Now we’re happy!


Here’s a little tour….











Very good strawberry margaritas! 


And what a great view right from my comfy chair…


We laze away, just relaxing and feeling zen.   We’ll definitely be back here again!


Zooming off for home with a quick stop at Chedraui. 

Sunset time!


We make a quick snack tray, pop the cork and get comfy in our refreshing viewing spot…


Just 4 super happy people having a great time in Isladise!




Not sure that we were really hungry as we’ve nibbled all day, but hey, why not!  Off to Angelo’s for our favourite pizza.  Love their thin crust.


Another great day!  Tomorrow….more fun and a ‘To-Do List’!
