    Jellyfish report

    It rained a little yesterday in Nayarit by the Pinacate turn at about 2:30- just enough to mess up your windshield. We didn't see any signs of rain in Penasco, and it was clear at 3:00 pm.

    Labor Day Roll Call.....

    The hottest I have ever been was in Kino Bay for Labor Day probably 1995 - the water temperature must have been at least 95 degrees, and the outside temperature hotter than that w/ humidity, so I generally stay away from Mexico for Labor Day. But I'm looking at the 10 day weather report for...

    Jellyfish report

    We were down there today (Tuesday 8/23/11), went swimming and didn't see any jellyfish or man of wars, and the water was really clear. The water temperature was 87 degrees at 3:00 pm, outside it was 95 degrees and 62% humidity. It was warm, but not oppressive, and didn't feel as humid as I...

    Weekend 8-26

    I saw on the weather page that it "cooled" down to 76 and I thought something must have been wrong with the thermometer, but now you've confirmed it- Thanks! http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/WXDailyHistory.asp?ID=ISONORAP1

    Use pesos or dollars in RP?

    I go in Banamex either in Plaza Fremont or Benito Juarez with a "wad" of cash, give them my passport, and get a great exchange rate. I agree with the comment on the Chase exchange rate.

    Reminds me of the baby whale who was set free and the jumping it did after the fishing lines were cut.

    Man Die's Clam Diving

    I think it's been 4 divers drown: 17 year old from Penasco, 24 year old from Michoacan, 22 year old from Hermosillo, and a 40-45 year old from Sinaloa. Very sad, and 4 divers too many. I don't remember hearing about this type of accident in years past.

    Have to try it out- Loved Lapa Lapa atmosphere, but didn't like the prices and food was so so.

    Air Dolphin

    I have- we were sitting outside of Flavios, and two dolphins jumped completely out of the water in mirror images. It looked like they had training at Sea World. Just didn't have my camera waiting for the show.

    Anyone have a good condition PWC for sale?

    That was the most horrible night of my life. When we got that call at 8:30 the following morning that they had landed on the tip of Punta Salinas, I've never seen so many adults break down and cry. From 12:30 pm overnight to 8:30 am in the middle of January, it was a miracle. You may have seen...

    Anyone have a good condition PWC for sale?

    If anyone is considering getting a kayak, I have one suggestion: get the brightest color possible. We first had a kayak that was yellow, but that was stolen, so we bought one which I thought was pretty: blue/green. Then we had those 2 people lost out on the water, and I wished it were a bright...

    Cancer Treatment Facility in Penasco

    Thanks for your input. I know they harvest your own stem cells, and grow them in Hermosillo, then re-inject them in Penasco. I just don't know the outcome, and I realize with cancer, it's a crap shoot, but I haven't heard any positive/negative results.

    Cancer Treatment Facility in Penasco

    Does anyone have any information regarding the results of this procedure? I know there are a lot of Americans coming to Penasco for treatment, but I was curious about the results, particularly with cancer. Thanks. http://www.thenews.com.mx/index.php/mexico/M02-13159.html

    Old Playa Del Oro Postcard

    I have an old PDO postcard I thought you would want to see: I don't know the year, but maybe some of the PDO regulars would know. I personally like the sign "Home of the Big Fish".
