We have been away for the last four days taking a vacation in Cuyulatan with Pat, Ray, Aracelly and Gilberto. We are staying at an older Mexican bed and breakfast beach house on the Pacific Ocean owned by a friend of Pat's. Cuyulatan has approximately 800 residents and is about a half hour from Mazanillo. It is a 3 1/2 hour drive away and the drive is very beautiful with mountains on both sides of the highway the entire time.
Men working on the side of a mountain pass.
Fields of sugar cane.
Restroom sign
Bathrooms - no toilet seat, but clean.
The tire on Ray's car came loose, so Gilberto got out to fix it.
We saw these signs throughout our drive- beware of falling rocks on cars!
We drove through miles and miles of coconut palms.
Our bed and breakfast inn on the black sand beach caused by offshore volcanic action. The second floor has a wonderful terrace. Our bedroom faced the ocean on the second floor.
Our front door
and cute door knocker.
This screened door on the terrace led to our bedroom and the back balcony overlooking the pool in the courtyard.
Our bedroom and dog. It had air conditioning. And we needed it as it was hot and humid. The summers must be unbearably hot there as it is now winter.

The first day was cloudy and about 80 degrees. We went swimming in the ocean and the water was warm, not at all as cold as at Virginia Beach or Nags Head, NC. The black sand was very soft to walk on and the bottom of the ocean was the same with no shells or rocks.
