From Boise, To Ixtapa

By From Boise, To..... | December 7, 2008

The view from the plane as we turned onto our final approach into Ixtrapa.

From door to door……9 hours. Not bad, I guess.

We left the house at 5:15 am and got to the door in Ixtapa at about 3:30 pm. We’re on Central Time down here. The flights were good, no issues.

Upon arriving here I had the camera out, as you can see, and was taking pictures on the ramp. Of course when that happens, I get yelled at. I did. They didn’t take the camera tho, that was nice. Shelley just kept walking hoping she wouldn’t be associated with me when I got snatched up. The photo looking back at the plane was the last I was able to get.

Looking back at our plane after we got off and before I got yelled at

The condo here is having issues with their WiFi and its only available in the breezeway right outside the business center. But I can see the ocean from here, so that’s okay.

We went to the grocery store and ate dinner out last night. Smoked a cigar and had a beer on the beach before sunset. Nice. After I finish posting I’ll be sitting on the beach the rest of the day. Do some boogie boarding as well. Finish my cigars and have a couple more drinks. Basically, I will do nothing and enjoy it.

The condo has a little cabana near the pools that sell 12 oz beer for $1.20 US. They have food as well. All very cheap. But they don’t serve dinner. Just finger food stuff. Hot dogs, hamburgers, tacos, chips, etc.
