Ajijic & San Antonio (Laguna de Chapala), Mexico (Mar 22-24)

We did our laundry… have to take advantage of the automated laundry service at Luis´s house. Luis went skateboarding with a buddy and came back late because we had to drop off Kara at the airport. We had lunch with Luis´s family at their cottage in Ajijic and then went to visit Edmundo´s uncle John and aunt Heather in San Antonio. Both towns are on Lake Chapala. The biggest lake in Mexico. Heather and John live in a cool little community in close proximity to the beach and surrounded by amazing views. They treated us to a delicious dinner at an Italian restaurant that had homemade pasta. Later that night Luis took us to the Semana Santa (Easter) celebrations in town. We saw the end of a Catholic mass and festivities in the main square in Ajijic. There were lots of very dangerous fireworks and traditional explosions of Judas figures.

We slept at Heather & John´s place and they made us awesome bacon ´n eggs, fresh squeezed oj and coffee for breakfast. They showed us around San Antonio and Ajijic and were amazing hosts! Thanks for everything! Later that day we went back to Luis´s cottage and hung out by the pool and played croquet. His parents left that afternoon but we decided to stay the night. We sat out on a deck overlooking the lake under the stars and a full moon and drank some beers, sipped some tequilla, listened to some sweet music, and had some life changing discussions.
