Peaceful Paradise Hideaway

Finally, I've put together a photo story so you can see the entire house here in Buenavista.  It is so peaceful and heavenly here.  Peace and quiet. No traffic noise, rarely a car passes by our lagoon road, and it is fun to just watch the water and sky.  The stars! It seems you can see all of them.  

This place brings to my mind a lot of memories of oher places I've been. The cove reminds me of the place we anchored for a month on our transpacific sail trip - in Niuatoputapu Island.  The reeds close to shore make me think I am on the Nile, and I expect to see a baby in a basket floating toward me at any time.  The entire place, village and all, takes me back to the Mexico I fell in love with- undeveloped raw beauty and nature. A night heron loves to perch on the dock or the seawall searching for food. When he sings, is he singing for his food?  The hummingbirds drink of the hibiscus flowers every day, that reminds me of the BVI.  Having a lawn- it's been a while. Hawaii was lava rock, Merida was cement.  Even if I had to wait a lifetime to find this piece of paradise, it was worth the wait.  Have a look. 


The yard and lagoon side of the house.  The yard is nicely maintained, and the sidewalks lead to the Lady of Guadalupe sculpture and altar, the trees with orchids, and the palapa and dock. The house is wheelchair accessible outside and inside.
