  1. The owners of the China Inn met while working at a sushi bar. I believe the wife is from Japan. I like the Szechuan pork with tofu and mushrooms at Min Wah.
  2. Cedros, you might want to get out a little more. Ajijic has many bicyclists, both recreational and as a mode of transportation.
  3. I also have lived in numerous countries, some that I could not have afforded without a corporate package that covered the rent, car, and a cost of living adjustment. I adjusted to the local norms. In some countries there was no tipping—it was considered an insult. In others there was a yearly ‘tip’ in the form of a significant financial gift. In others, the wedding guest needed to contact the venue to ensure that the wedding gift, always money, covered at least the cost of your part of the party.
  4. Betty does a good job with her dim sum meals, but it is not the same I lived in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Sydney and I want carts, and hundreds of diners around me.
  5. Copel department store in Chapala, underground parking.
  6. We became Apple people the day we retired; iMac, iPhones, iPads. We do have Office for Macs and we are very happy. The interface never changes. Changes and upgrades are behind the scene. Viruses are not our problem.
  7. We do not need fossil fuels. Advanced countries have virtually abandoned fossil fuels.
  8. It sounds like you need a detailed job description for the gardener. Then document every time that he deviates—late, no show, whatever. Make the job description reasonable and make sure he agrees. How many hours does the housekeeper work? If she is full time then you may have an employee on your hands. I think Azucena is the best attorney in the area for employee negotiations.
  9. Why look in Guadalajara when they are available in Ajijic? They are made in a small factory on the west side of the libriemento, not far north of the Laguna Plaza. You need to watch carefully. The only real signage is a board holding a few samples.
