Hello all Well the good ship Diamond Girl arrived at her finail destination of this trip. Paradise Vilalage is just that if you like 5 star resorts. Lots of great places to eat, a real American grocery store, internet, pools and hot tubs and all the usual resort amenities. It is real culture shock for the crew. After experiencing the real Mexico the resort seams very superficial. It is sad to think that this is the only part of Mexico most people ever experience. On the other hand, there are no dead smelly fish here and we had a great meal at the resort. Tomorrow we start the clean-up of Diamond Girl. We did get some help from mother nature as we had almost 2 inches of rain last night. That washed away a lot of the salt from a couple of days ago. Tonight is the first night in two weeks we don't have to sail or keep watch of party. The saing life is really hard:-) larry
