As I view the lower half of the final page of my 2012
calendar, I take pause and ponder the manifest blessings which have been
bestowed upon me during the prior months. Oh Gag! This is not a moment for obtuse
reflection; it is yet another opportunity to assess the next action moving
forward. VIVA! Somehow the act of reflection raises my paranoia filter. Does
anyone else harbor that vacuous thought that they might look rearward to
reflect and see nothing other than the reflection of their rear?
I have decided to proffer instead my personal choices
of all that is incredible in Yelapa. In the interest of full disclosure, I acknowledge
that no extensive survey was taken, no statistical analysis applied and
certainly no objectivity invited. These are my
personal selections and I am gifting them to you, my dedicated readership to
relish for the coming year until I update them in December 2013. May I have the
envelope, please?

I seek to simply communicate the spectrum which exists
in our little pueblo. Yes, there are food and beverage purveyors galore,
physical activities in which to engage and comfortable lodging in which to
retreat. If your “travels” to Yelapa during 2013 include nothing more than my
blog, a few online videos and the odd travel book at the public library, then
rest assured that there is a friendly “hola, buenos dias” awaiting you manana. Feliz
Navidad!
For your listening pleasure, I am including a link to
the quintessential Mexican Christmas song. Enjoy!
