Over the years the group that originated in the Las Jaibas RV park has met on the beach for a Christmas happy hour and picture. Some of us are in condos or houses now but we remain friends.
This year, as she has in the past Carol rallied the troops and we all met at the beach. We usually gather just off the beach road in front of the Torres resort but this year the beach access is torn up and repairs are being made to previous weather damage. We gathered farther south between the 360 tower and the Park Royal at 4pm.

2021...Covid and a small group.
2018 and we were a large group!
Here the tallest person..Eric is putting up a Santa hat so people will know where to go.
Park Royal in the background. A quiet area which suits us.
Marilyn and Marion in their "babushka" Santa hats😂...Aren't they cute!
Helene on the left and Connie with Mitzi.
Quite a few of us this year. 19 ....I think.
Lots of visiting while we have happy hour.
Connie and Helene.

Longtime friends Dennis, Manny and Eric. Dennis just had successful corrective neck surgery here in Mexico.
Looking north.
Carol managed to get a guy passing by to take our photo.
Whoops..no Carol.
A few of us. This is what "old timers" look like when they winter in Mexico!
There we are. We're missing Helene's husband Hal who had to come late. The picture was a bit tight but we all squeezed in.
Pat chatting to Marion and Marilyn.
Connie and Mitzi. Mitzi is so tiny and doesn't have much hair so she's cuddled up.
Manny chatting to Marilyn.
Manny took the "wear something red memo" seriously...even his underwear is red😃
Manny and Frank.
I was trying to take a picture of Marion taking a picture😉
Steffi, Helene, Pat and Pam.
Robert and Steffi just arrived in the RV park.
Hilarious photo..Eric and Randal are tall but the camera made their legs look like giraffe legs!
Cloudy but warm and this family is enjoying the evening.
The sun is getting ready to set and everything takes on a glow.
Hal and Helene.
Eric and Connie.
Some headed to the water for more photos.
The clouds make the sunset spectacular!
Looking south.
Frank wanted to be in the beach picture so...here he is!
