I'm upgrading all the outlets at my place here innthr village... This one seems to have some sort of senor in it?... I pulled it out and looked in back and it's just daisy chained to the black wire?... Anyone else came across this in their house?...

Not ti hijack this... But there has been a Mexican guy walking around the Aijijic Plaza & Malecon on weekends that has been selling what looks like orchid plants (not booming)... Does anyone know what he has?...

Can you share what you paid?...

I'm just off Colon/Ocampo and mines been out since yesterday at ~3pm...

There is a lighting store in the 1st floor of Plaza Bugambílías that has a stack on them in the front window

Google Maps allows you to download an area to your phone so you do not need cellular for navigation in cellular dead spot areas… Note: Do this when your phone has wifi so as to not use your data GBs… Click the three bars on the left and one of the options is “Offline Maps”…

Steren at Laguna Plaza has a selection of small batteries... https://maps.app.goo.gl/K9VbnZxP4yzJPEwM6

Sounds like you got the basic lens in one eye... Could you share the cost?... Do you know what the cost would have been with a multifocal lens?...

There is a Telcel vendor on the west side of Aijijic Plaza (Next to Chile Verde)… It is run by two very nice ladies (One speaks perfect English)… I walked in an they set me up with a SIM card and Amigo 200 plan in 15 minute (Sim 129 peso plus 200 peso for month of data). They also handle prepayments to maintain the plan… I now give them 1,000 pesos for 5 months of service (5 x 200)… They give you a receipt with the date to come back before it runs out… You can choose any monthly prepaid plan and any amount of prepayment you like…

You could buy a basic LTE wifi router that accepts a SIM card… Use a basic Telcel prepaid plan for 150 peso/month… These routers are usually powered by a USB dongle so you could buy a simple power bank and daisy chain it to provide backup power in the event of a power outage… One caveat to this or any cellular solution is that the cell towers also get the power cut in a power outage… I live in downtown Aijijic and when the power goes out my cellphone loses its data… My guess is the cell towers go on battery backup and will only function for calls and not data… Next time you have a power outage try to use your phones data to see if it works…

Amazon has a large selection... https://www.amazon.com.mx/s?k=gas+grill&i=specialty-aps&rh=n%3A21210579011&crid=5NVI5GR0T7WI&sprefix=gas+grill%2Caps%2C389&ref=nb_sb_noss_1

On the 13th I departed GDL-Huston and went to United Airlines counter first, showed them my Apps boarding pass (I checked in earlier using the app) and asked if I needed a stamped FMM card to depart… They looked puzzled and said that the app pass was all I needed… I asked for paper boarding passes too just in case… But they were not interested in anything to do with FMM… When boarding I just scanned my app not needing the paper boarding pass… No one asked me or anyone else for FMM…

Did immigration hand you back a stamped portion of the FMM or did they just discard the whole form that they kept?
