Vacation Fun In Ixtapa Mexico

January 20th, 2010 by Sean Elstins

An Ixtapa, Mexico vacation offers the best of all worlds. The area boasts beautiful white sand beaches ideal for all water sports, has first class amenities, and proximity to the tranquil old town of neighboring Zihuatanejo. Ixtapa is a modern resort area, but still much smaller than Cancun and Acapulco.

Ixtapa is located on the Pacific Coast, approximately 145 miles (240 km) northwest of Acapulco. The region is known for its hilly, tropical coastline dotted with white sandy beaches and wonderful hidden coves. Half the land in Ixtapa has been set aside as an ecological reserve. The average annual temperature is 78.8 Fahrenheit, and the sun shines approximately 340 days out of the year. Even in the rainy season (June to September) the sun is only interrupted by brief afternoon showers.

This destination is easy to get to, as its airport, called Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo International, has nonstop flights from many American cities. The airport is located only minutes from the resort area. While in Ixtapa, visitors do not need rental cars, and can rely on reasonably priced taxis and local transport. Day trips outside the resort would require a rental car, which can be rented at the airport.

Gringo Guide to Speaking Spanish – Instantly Know What To Say!

December 24th, 2009 by Dr Jay Polmar

My story: I had a challenge. I had to move to Mexico for my health and retire. Sure, I spoke English, a few words of French from high school, about 12 words of Spanish which might wind me up in fight or worse in a Mexxican jail, yeah – mostly curse words.I was in trouble and when I arrived in Mexico, I needed help.

Luckily, I met Reuben Varela, a well known Restauranteur at the Balneario Hot Springs in San Juan Cosala, Jalisco, Mexico and Gerardo Tolentino, an English teacher who was teaching 1st year English.

Reuben pushed me to find ways of studying and practicing Spanish, and Gerardo help me create the Gringo Guide. I was the gringo — and I definitely had to have a guide to get me through the experience of living here in Mexico.

We talked to them and asked them what they needed, and we listened to what they asked of the waiters, restaurant owners, etc. Later, then Gerardo accompanied me to doctors and we went to travel through Mexico.
