Meeting up with blog readers, Brenda and Gerry on the beach in Sayulita, Nayarit

Visting Kevin's cousin and his wife, Darl and Cindy (sorry no picture of them), in Puerto Vallarta

    I bet learning the tamal spread was fun! I've never got the hang of it. Gotta have just a bit of masa on the outside so when you recalentarlos, it is nice and crispy!
