Monday afternoon clouded over and made for some good conditions for a bike ride… the inaugural ride was relatively successful. We spent about 1 ½ hours cycling around the community and all went well until I tried to cycle up a ramp just across the marina from our condo. The pathway there is split into three; one less steep and longer, one steeper and shorter and one set of stairs. I tried the steep ramp but I have no gears so that did not work, much to the amusement of some people who were milling around at the time. The really successful piece was that I could still walk on Tuesday and my legs were not stiff as I was expecting (after close to a 15-year absence from a bicycle). The cloud hung around on Tuesday and as we had some errands to do, it was not unwelcomed. We headed into Playa in the evening with Bob & Carol to try out an East Indian restaurant (the first one we had found in Playa).
‘Latequila’ was a tiny restaurant with 6 very small tables inside and a few more outside, although they were out of commission because it had started to rain very heavily by the time we got there. Harish and Claudia were the owners and operators; Harish originates from Birmingham in the UK and his wife Claudia is Mexican. The restaurant offers set meals on Tuesdays and Fridays and this is what we went to try out; the food was excellent and we had a three-course meal for 150 pesos (~$12) each. The set meals change each time so we will definitely be back to try some other dishes.
