Villa Vitta Hotel in Bahía de los Angeles
... Travelled from Escondido Thursday with a quick spot at Coco's & wound up a Villa Vitta; $50 a nite, clean, pool, a/c, restaurant & bar...
Mario there speaks good English & was VERY accommodating to our needs... Enjoyed the food there also.... Snorkled the whale sharks with Sergio who
did a good job -$120 for the 4 of us... Not much in the way of gringos there yet... Currently in Mulege at La Hacienda where there is quite a bit of
activity... Pool is clean, coffee is tasty & Ciro is also very accommodating to us.... Currently overcast with occasional sprinkle with humidity
& bugs... Dinner last night at El Candil & looked like th e ladies were out circulating.... Life continues to be good....

Hola, we met when we were both at the Hacienda a couple of years ago. Its nice to see the old place doing well, Ciro has worked hard to keep the
hotel in good shape despite slow tourism. Please let him know that my bike and I will be rolling in in a couple of weeks. This month marks 42 years
since I first arrived there on my then new Honda CB750. I have a lot of great memories of those years, met folks from all over the globe in that
courtyard and especially when the bar was still operating.

Where is La Hacienda located? It sounds like the place I stayed in '99', but there are quite a few details missing from that trip.
I travel with a dog now, any chance that they are allowed there?
If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!
"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

... Kurt be advised Ciro is expecting you, he has the red carpet ready! AKringo, La Hacienda is next to the town square / stadium & close to a
large grocery store & walking distance to MOST eateries in town... As a side note Ray's is closed per a sign on the hiway..... just back from
huevos rancheros by the Mulege archway.... Very tasty & 260 pesos for 4 of us....

I believe Hacienda is run by family to Lindsay, who used to be my boss at a La Jolla language school in San Diego. Lindsay was on bajanomad way back
when, not so much any more. Small world.
