The Beach Town of Chacala

We have been to Chacala, a small fishing village north of Puerto Vallarta at least two other times and each time we have shared a two bedroom, two bathroom apartment with our travelling friends Pat and Gail.

The two weeks that we stayed here this time was spent revisiting old haunts and seeing what had changed since we were last here. It has been pretty hot and humid so our day was pretty simple.

Every morning when it was cool at 7 a.m,, Chris walked up the volcano sometimes with me and sometimes with a fellow he met called Garret, a retired judge. If I didn’t go up, I walked along the beach.

We stop in at a beach palapa and have a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice and watch people strolling on the beach. Then we would head home for a late breakfast.

We loved reading on the upstairs patio with the views of the lake.

On occasion, we would go into the bigger town of Las Varas for money, lunch or just to wander around the town.

For a few days, we went hunting for a house to rent for our kids and grandkids. They are coming on February 14 for a week. Luckily we found a place with three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a pool, directly across the street from PnG’s apartment! They will love it.Leggi altro
