Wow, you've been busy for just arriving, especially while fighting a migraine! Your stories are always so entertaining and make people feel as if they're there with you. Great report.

We had a similar experience with Pipos when we were there last. The whole fish was a big -- or should I say small, overpriced disappointment but the filet was very good. I guess that's the best thing to order there, as least for us.

Thanks again for the enjoyable report!

LOL well I guess you broke your rules of no partying on the first night - oh well! Have a wonderful time, we are jealous for sure! :D

Sounds like you have had fun so far. Might just have to meet up with Need for a fun week of partying. lol.

small bump in the road, but not the end of the world. I have a blackberry for work and email. I don't take it out with me at night ever. I had it last night before dinner and after at my room. The only people to come to my room was this heavy drinking younger couple we befriended in the pool.

Fairly certain it was them who snagged it when they met up with us at my room. It's very uncomfortable to confront folks your getting friendly with, but I know the staff well here and they did NOT take my blackberry. Obviously I'll have to take this on the chin, but it's a principle thing irritating me.

My buddy is coming on Tuesday and I already had him buy me a new one...Just stinks to have lost all that data and have all my contacts information in someone elses hands. This will not stop me from enjoying this trip to the fullest, but it has taught me to be smarter. Ironically, I'm very protective of my belongings before I go out in case I bring back friends :-) and I never expected 2 gringos to be the culprits. I have no proofe, but I'm a gut instinct guy...

Sorry to learn of your misfortune, amigo - though you've obviously accepted it & moved on (admittedly, much more easily & accepting than I may have done). That's a real bummer.

Otherwise, glad to know that you're enjoying your stay ... once again. Better luck in the days ahead.

Need, can't you get that Blackberry "locked" to where it is worthless to them? That is truly sad that somebody would take something that does not belong to them or that they did not pay for. You know how I feel about thieves! You sure have a great attitude about it, though. A true vacationer!

sorry about the phone ... i am so jealous that you're there and I have to wait 3 more weeks. have fun, and have some tacos for me.

Sorry to hear about the theft Need, I,ve been ripped off by Gringos while in Acapulco too. I think they feel that since your in Mexico its easier to blame the locals. Darn shame.I,ve always trusted ny Mexican friends & never been ripped off by them.

NEED

Richards correct you can totally disable the phone but you need serial # to call it in to ATT&T...There is supposedly an automated area after you type in serial # you hit * # 0 6 # and it will freeze out the phone ..Thats a Zero above BTW...

And nice night out otherwise LOL seems you have it going pretty good. And when you get the new blackberry take a few pictures of the bay or anything good & text it over LOL...

Thanks for the concern. It sort of recked my day to be honest with you all. It's not the money, it's rethinking over and over how it may have happened and the respect factor. Yeah, it would be simple to go in guns blazing so to speak and take care of this in a way other matters are settled in this town...LOL, but there's always that 1% remote chance that I could be wrong and someone from the hotel took it or some how some way it's burried in clothing, but trust me on this one....I'm fairly certain.

The couple didn't make it to the public pool today. The hotel mgr that I'm friendly with also said something is strange with them. They refuse to let the chamber maid make the room and they switched rooms today claiming they felt there room was broken into which it wasn't and nothing was missing.....REally Odd...Honestly I don't think it was the dude, but I do think it was his chick....He may not even realize it or may get turned on in some kind of sick way...LOL One thing is for sure, these 2 are drunk all day and night.....They read the forum, but oh well......Tonight will be cool..have dinner plans...I'll try to report up to date as much as able and make it more interesting rather than babble about this stuff.

One quick funny line...I was at Fandango and heard the notorious blackberry chime when emails come in....I went to check my pockets... I looked at my partner and said, hey sir....you didn't happen to receive that from a drunken gringo did you? LOL

BTW, I did get it locked by Tmobile...I think most of my contacts are stored in my laptop so not the end of the world. Just I had emails on there since mid 06.
