Today we took a walk up Isla Cuale to look for the new pedestrian bridge linking Isla Cuale to Gringo Gulch.

Richard Burton bought Liz Taylor a home, Casa Kimberly, in Gringo Gulch and a home for himself across the street when they were filming Night of the Iguana. He had a pink bridge built between the two homes so they could discreetly meet.

 We walked around the corner to find Hacienda San Angel, a highly recommended Boutique Hotel that has amazing meals. There is a funky rope connected to a little pulley that you pull and it rings a huge bell in a tower inside the compound. Pretty amazing. We got a quick look around and made reservations for another night.
This pulley contraption rings the large bell in a tower inside. Pretty incredible!
Next we stopped by the Cheeky Monkey for a $1 beer and a view of the Malecon.


After a dip in the pool tp cool off, we headed to El Torito to watch the Bronco Saints game. Fun to watch them actually win!
