My day of reuniting with old friends. I enjoyed my morning coffee on the malecon at Villas San Miquel where I meet Isla friends Ann and then Donna and Cheryl. I spend the morning writing at the villas.

Karen & Kathy join me to walk to Hotel Las Palmas. We had lunch at the Loncherias and then I was off to visit my Isla family at Hortencia’s. There were hugs and tears all around. I had more writing at to do Las Palmas and there were lots of comfortable places to do so.

While visiting my sister Sue at the little apartment that we share, it is like an Isla reunion when Peggy, Gloria and Hugh joined us. We enjoyed an absolutely delicious dinner catered by Glay & Gaby Food. Here is the link: https://foodmusings.ca/isla-mujeres/glay-gaby-food-drink-isla-mujeres-food-feature-2026/

I joined K and K at El Patio Casa de la Música where they dined. Here is the link to their dinner: https://foodmusings.ca/isla-mujeres/el-patio-de-musica-isla-mujeres-restaurant-feature-2026/

En route home we met up with my long time friend Javi (yes that Javi!) My heart was full.

My first Beach Day. I was awake way too early but there happened to be an eclipse, so it was kinda worth it. I was loving the vibe at Hotel Las Palmas. Here is the link that I wrote about my stay. https://foodmusings.ca/isla-mujeres/hotel-las-palmas-accommodation-feature-isla-mujeres-2026/

I spent the afternoon under the palms at Playa Centro with my brother Kelly, Lorraine, K & K and Deanie. That gang and my sister Sue assembled for dinner at Marina Bartalome. Link here: https://foodmusings.ca/isla-mujeres/marina-bartalome-isla-mujeres-restaurant-feature-2026/

At la quenta time I realized I had misplaced some money. I tried not to be frantic. I raced “home” to search through all my belongings! (I had put in the cooler bag that I took to the beach! What a ditz I am…).
