Hello Lakesiders! After 4 1/2 years of planning, 8 days driving from BC, Canada like a couple of old turtles with all we own on our "backs" we made it.
Thanks to all for the help, advice and general information over the years.
We are ecstatic to be here and are looking forward to many years livin' la vida loca. mariachi

Welcome to Lakeside and it's gorgeous weather. If you're from Canada you'll find it much, much warmer here. Canadians love Lakeside. We have lots of em.

Surte Thanks everybody! We do love it here and now I don't have to cry when our vacation is ending and we have to leave here...we retired December 14th, packed up everything we owned, spent Christmas up island and left Canada on January 1st. All we had to go by was a 2008 big, old school road atlas and advice from lots of you good folks. All our preparations, directions at the border and meticulous planning paid off. We are looking forward to the next swarm to meet and thank you.

It is on the careterra on the lakeside in West Ajijic just east of the La Huerta Eventos (where the Tuesday market is).
