One of the many reasons I love Isla, is watching the sky at sunrise.

On this day, neither Sue or I had writing to do so we grabbed a bus and headed mid island for brunch at Casa Mkx.

MapChickapps has a new navigational feature and Sue followed our progress and then she shouted to the driver to let us off. That’s the way the system works here.

The food as shown in this blog link here: ( https://foodmusings.ca/isla-mujeres/isla-mujeres-2025-restaurant-features-casa-mkx-written-by-sister-3/ ) is art and that is because a former Madera chef is at the helm.

When you have a meal, you are welcome to use the pool which is lovely. There are also classes under the palapa. We witnessed a boxing class and salsa dancing had been scheduled at 8 am. It was nice to get out of Centro for part of the day.

After a brief Happy Hour with Donna and visit with neighbour Cheryl, I was out the door again.

This time to dine with our friend Gustavo at Isla Burger. Brother Kelly and his wife Lorraine joined me. The food was perfect, as usual. Here is the Restaurant Feature that I wrote for the blog. https://foodmusings.ca/isla-mujeres/isla-mujeres-2025-restaurant-features-isla-burger/. Gustavo has met many members of my family including my niece and goddaughter Dani and her husband Dylan who live in Australia!

When the rain started, Kelly gave up his poncho for me. What a guy! In the rain I joined Donna for the 4 Nations Hockey final. It was fun to watch with an equal number of US and Canadian fans. It was a full and wonderful day filled with family and friends, old and new.
