Today we all moved up the hill from Lindo Mar into Ocho Cascadas, which is a unique and beautiful property. It is open air on the ocean facing side with sweeping views of the Bay of Banderas. For our first night, we had the chef cook a meal for us. This time our chef was Lupe's niece, who did a great job with our Mahi Mahi Veracruz style.

That night none of us got too much sleep due to our very loud neighbors and their Kareoke party, which lasted until after midnight. When the singing was over, the party continued until dawn. Poor Barb and Bill had to fly out the next morning after a sleepless night. Many in the neighborhood complained and they were very quiet the following evening. The worst part is that NONE of them could sing worth a lick. Ouch!! Here we are doing catcalls. Barb is yelling, "Freebird!"

Ruth had ordered a kilo of lobster from the fisherman in the kayak at Lindo Mar. We walked down the hill and spent a nice beach day there. We brought the lobsters back and had a very interesting time opening them to get the meat out. Jose suggested sauteing the meat, so we did. Tasted great, but we think an easier way is to just boil them.
