Thanks for taking the time to help us live vicariously through you.

Thank you very much. It means a lot coming from an excellent TR writer like yourself!

Muchas gracias mi amiga!

Thanks for all the info you provide, but more than that: the amusement. You're a great writer! So ready for more.

Very cool that you are going non AI! I hope you have a blast, and thanks!

Your perfect dining day is just like mine could trade juice and tacos off the carts for Cuevo one day though.

Liked your star ratings as well.

Keep up the good work - really hope this will not be your last report.

Will give another opinion on many places you mention right after Feb 10 when I get back after a week of tequila and good food.

Thanks! I look forward to hearing your review on places. We did not make it to the carts this time - that was truly a disappointment.

You do provide a lot of good information for those of us who haven't frequented Playa as often. I will be sharing with my BF so he can become more familar with Playa. This trip will only be his 2nd time he's been in Mexico.

Thank you for taking the time to share your week with us!

Thanks! Just wait until the end when I give my concise ratings and print off that. You'll get the good info without the immaturiy!

Thanks! Thas was a total shocker about Ed. I could see spending more time in PM and probably would have gotten to know him well.

That was cool that he talked to you while we were hanging out. It was almost like we were finally partying together. Someday...

La Fragata is a lunch and dinner place, not usually open for breakfast, I don't think. I hope you got there eventually. My favourite restaurant.

Thanks! We never did make it back to El Fragrata. It is on my short list...

Thanks Pat! When we met you last fall, we were driving. We act a bit different on vacation.

I felt so badly for her. I should have grabbed a couple of her shots and did them myself. But...she is tequila girl.

I'll let him know!

Yes she is a very pretty one at that

[burly]

Oh my the speedos..
And to the rest of the update. I remember a night just like that, starts off nice and innocent and then the redhead(me) decides i am just fine for one or 2 more shots. 10 shots later and im desperately trying to get my bra off from under my shirt, BEFORE, we get back to the room.

funtimes.........

thank you for referring to the trip report so
peeps like me can just get to the story

[patfstich]

All right.....I'm reading this at 5:00 am, and laughing so loud that the dogs are giving me dirty looks! Looks like a good time was had by all.
Looking forward to more..........

[Allen&Jessica]

Monster cookies, gorgeousness, and the ability to down incredible amounts of tequila in a short period of time? TG is my hero!

Thanks for another fun installment.

[Ruso&Cita]

Seems pretty tame to me Jefe. I don't recall any rowdiness on this trip. However you have all the good evidence on your camera!

Rabbits, how flattering, I think Ruso's chest just puffed up a little bigger.

[MChance]

Great report. Having lots of fun reading it and reliving all the local drinking establishments.

Please burn that speedo!

[annrawa]

You are quite brave to go out in the public with that speedo. Maybe when you get a bit of a tan it will look better.

I like that word "desperately".

Yep, I know some people just like reading the report, while others like the comments. So I put links in there to try to satisfy both groups of folks!

And she puts up with a guy that looks like I do in a speedo. She is my hero also!

Thanks! No way on the speedo. I think it will provide comic relief in a variety of situations!

While on my body, the speedo did not leave the Luna Blue, so I am not that brave!

[Trish&Chad]

Great trip report!!! I haven't stopped laughing! You guys were having a blast.

[lovefun]

Hey, I really loved your last installment, but had a question that I forgot to ask. I noticed the TG has a nook in a couple of the pictures in the beginning of the report. I got a kindle for Christmas, and am SO excited about reading on the beach, but I'm a little worried about the fine sand. Did TG have any issues?
