Mexico's largest lake is Lago Chapala, about 5 hours drive inland from PV. At only 50 miles long and 20 miles wide, it is small enough to fit into greater Toronto! And the water level rises and falls in extremes because of alternating droughts and rains. Ajijic (ah-hee-HEEK) is a village on the north shore with many gringos living fulltime in its moderate climate and low cost of housing.
This past weekend started the Festival of San Andres, the patron saint of Ajijic. The town is already full of bright coloured walls and colourful street people, but add booming cannons and brass bands and you get a real eyefull and earfull.
And I finally found some classic cars --- a car club from nearby Guadalajara set up in town: about 20 cars and about 500 cans of beer. Thankyou Saint Andrew!
