Eco Divers Posada

Last night we went to the Eco Divers posada. Jorge has done this for the past several years and we were happy to be included again. Eco's version of a posada bears no relationship to most posadas in Mexico. This diversion from the norm shouldn't be a surprise to anyone who has met Jorge or dived with Eco! It's mostly just good food courtesy of Jorge's girlfriend, Kristen, lots of booze, and some really funny folks. When we arrived, Jorge's long time friend Paulo was playing traditional Mexican music with a small group and all the guests were singing along. Peggy spent quite awhile talking with Jorge's niece Carlita (12 years old) and Paulo's daughter (11 years old). We have known Carlita since she was born and this year we were blown away by how she has become a young woman! Peggy tried to speak Spainish and the girls practiced their English. So much fun to have the girls become very serious instructors. Ed, on the other hand, drank beer with the boys and ate more food than was necessary. We stayed a couple of hours and when we left, the party was just gettin' goin'. Wow! These folks are party animals!
