  1. 2nd thumbs up for Mediterraneo (once they open back up). Thin crust. Not that far from La Estación, a little West and on the other side of the street.
  2. The 24th is the suggested date for returning the request for a ballot, not the ballot itself.
  3. I had a huge increase. Over ten years of 400 / 600 peso bills jumped to 4500 this past cycle. They installed a new meter during this past cycle (must be a ‘gringo meter’). It’s under appeal but I don’t hold it a lot of hope when dealing with utilities or the government here or in most countries.
  4. Meditteraneo’s pizzas are excellent. The young women currently staffing the restaurant are very friendly and accommodating. Altogether an enjoyable dining experience and, yes, the crusts are very thin. Hard to eat without knife and fork.
  5. A wonderful barber and a real gentleman, the only one I have visited in 17 years living in Chapala. And ,yes, he gave me his card reading he will make home visits beginning in April.
  6. 750 pesos at Hospital San Antonio
  7. Please, contact information, address for Dra. Mayra.
  8. Was there by appointment this morning. They had computer problems and so the process was very slow, just under two hours, most of it standing in line. I’ve done it myself years back at the old Chapala office. But the years and hearing loss have taken their toll, and being unfamiliar with the new semi complicated paperwork requirements and office procedures I used Luis from Spenser’s office. He did a wonderful job preparing my paperwork and explaining how to work my way through the maze at the tránsito office. I did it myself 8 years ago here in Chapala when It was one big room, with lots of signage in English spelling out procedures. That office was closed up years ago. I went to Guadalajara 4 years ago with an expeditor. The current office here in Chapala is updated Jalisco government bureaucracy at work. It probably is efficient and effective when their computers are working properly. The paperwork requirements are listed above. Remember to get an appointment on line ahead of time.

  10. The only sponges I like for every day kitchen/ bathroom use are the ‘ 3M Scotch-brite ocelo multi-purpose’ variety. Super Lake has occasionally carried them over the years but not recently. I ordered them on Amazon U.S. Affordably priced, received expeditiously, and now have a two year supply or more.
  11. When I moved to Chapala in 2004 the exchange was 4 to 1 and I thought I was getting a good deal.
