More Sunset, Bird and Horse Photos





The horse photos are for you, Cheryl.








Another walk along the water with Chico. I think about winter up north and feel so happy to be here instead. I know I have many photos like these on my blog but I am obsessed with this beauty. Forgive me.

Morning at the lake and My Walk to Wal Mart



Those are rain clouds. It rained a little bit in the afternoon and again in the night.

La Floresta. Wide streets, mostly quiet.



My first sighting of a Santa. He is in Wal Mart.

Saturday Morning Walk with Chico and My Friend Don



The children were proud of their art work. There is an art class at the Lake Chapala Society every week.

Above is the information booth at the LCS.




There were a lot of people at the LCS this morning. There is another election. I stay out of the politics. It is too confusing for me.



Chico and I went for a walk with my friend Don. I took photos of an outdoor art show and some small shops.

Chico makes a new friend.

Don in front of Barbara's Bazaar. It is a consignment store.

The Waiters at La Bodega


I was exhausted yesterday from my trip to Tonala. All I did was go out to lunch at the Boston Deli and in the late afternoon I visited with Cesear and the new waiter at La Bodega. They were making a bouquet of flowers for someone. I love to watch men working with flowers. It brings out their artistic and gentle sides.

Gigi's Boston Deli, My Favorite Restaurant in Ajijic

My first sight of a Christmas tree. It is made entirely out of Napoli Cactus. It is in the lobby where Gigi's Boston Deli is located. Gigi's is upstairs. The movie theater is upstairs too. El Torito grocery store is there and other small shops. My friend Don invited me out to lunch and of course I said, Let's go to Gigi's.
Gigi is behind the counter.

I ordered the fish. She added four shrimps on top. I don't like fish. I don't like shrimp but I love them both the way she cooks them. She is a great cook and she piles on the food. We had to tell her, no bread. There was enough food for three meals.
Don ordered the pork roast and he only wanted carrots. Her meals are forty and forty five pesos. I saw another person with an order of shrimps and they were piled high on her plate. I never could have eaten that many shrimps in one sitting. She has roast beef, chicken and beef fajitas, filete mignon. I can't think of what else but she has a varied menu. She is a wonderful person too. I love to go to the Boston Deli to eat and visit with Gigi.
