Oscar y Lalos Update

ami · 11-30-2005

Good news! We were there on Nov. 22 and the place is up and running. Palms have been replanted, the tables were out, people were having drinks, people were kayaking, etc. It appears more plants and palms will be planted by the looks of things; there was a large area next to the parking lot where many were sitting just waiting to be planted somewhere, and a few workers hovering around them. The drive into the place is quite a surprise because of the Wilma-trimmed vegetation; you can see things and views you've never seen before!

Cool, would like to check it out next time

Lalo is getting kinda carried away with the palm planting, in a couple of years, you won't be able to see the bay

Love all those palms...can't wait to be there.

Hey Ami! I think I was there on Tuesday also! Too bad we didn't see each other. Glad you had a good time. It looks better each time I go.

As of two days ago the palms are a bit sparse but are coming back and many have been replanted. Still one of the prettiest spots on the coast!

Has Lalo replaced any of the hammocks, when we were there in Sept, he only had 2 and one was "his"........ I mean, the new beach beds are nice and everything, but those hammocks were my favorite on the coast

Beach beds are just too trendy and just seem out of place. Hammocks are more natural

Donna · 12-14-2005

I like the beach beds.They are comfy.Since when did a bed become too trendy?

We had the opportunity to go for lunch on Sunday with a group of people from Church and we were anxious to see how it had fared from the hurricane.
Our lunch was fantastic and the service was excellent, but of course, no hurricane could ever take away that magnificent view. It is a postcard!
Yes, the vegetation is different and there is still a poor car in the parking lot that was a victim of the storm, but, Oscar y Lalo remains perfecto!
For those that have not been, we strongly encourage you to go!

Hmmn, trying to remember...think we only saw one or two. We plunked ourselves down at a table outside then after a bit I got up and went for a little 'nature walk' with my friend Harris. (the no-seeums by the cenote were brutal)
