My wife makes me watch all the reality shows, Survivor, Amazing Race, Fear Factor, etc. (that's a disclaimer, it's not my fault). One of her
favorites is The Bachelor (occasionally, The Bachelorette). The current Bachelor episode just completed, and I was interested to note that a segment
of the show was shot in Loreto, where the Bachelor had dates with the last two candidates for his eternal love. They stayed at the Posada de Las
Flores, and the segment included snuggling in the rooftop pool, talking at the bar, etc.
As the credits for the last show rolled, I noticed one that said that "travel and lodging in Loreto arranged by Loreto Bay Villages". Wow, that was
interesting. That must have set LBV back quite a bit, bringing the whole production staff down to Loreto and putting them up at the pricey Posada de
Las Flores. Probably a good investment though, since Loreto looked great and everybody said nice things about it. It begs the question, however, why
they didn't do the show out at the Camino Real, where LBV has an office and, I thought, an affiliation.
There is no relevant point to this post, just thought it was interesting and wonder if anyone else (whose wives make them watch reality shows) noticed
it. More proof that I need to get a life.
