(I asked where is San Juan de Los Planes is and here is the
answer:
San Juan de Los Planes is the actual name here that's on the
official
map of the area....
So we are here near Los Planes, as it's commonly referred
to,.... 1/2
hour south of La Paz, south of La Ventana- El Sargento, near
the Sea
of Cortez. Not sure where the other towns of the same name
would be.

a. Re: Beware Of False Pricing - The location in San Quintin
-turn right at last gas station with the minimart - it's
signed with $750 MN on a large billboard, called Hotel Santa
Maria if memory serves me, is $500 MN plus tax. Lots of hot
water, great beds, clean rooms with A/C and heat, Sat TV,
wireless in lobby, and it accepts pets. One wing is open,
service is friendly, it's the La Pinta of old with upgrades.
We enjoyed it and were pleasantly surprised to find it less
than advertised; a bargain at the price. - Sabrina Lear,

(I wrote to Sabrina and she said the parking was "safe"
Cheryl)
b. Better Bargain - In response to the high prices of the
old La Pinta in San Ignacio, I highly recommend staying with
Terry and Gary Marcer at San Ignacio Springs
http://www.ignaciosprings.com/ (on your way into
town), The accommodations are great and a wonderful
breakfast is included. We've been going there for years. -

QUESTIONS
a. Does anyone out there in Ponyland know where I can buy
"ear candles"....I have a friend who needs them. Also, does
anyone know if the frozen wheat grass juice is still
available anywhere in the area? I looked at Mega the other
day where I had bought some last year and couldn't find
it....thanks....
jackie1@gorge.net
b. Looking for a guitar teacher in Los Barriles..Beginner
group lessons would be great also.
Thank You Patty,

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
a. In response to the recent request on the BPE for an
evening yoga class....I was just thinking the same thing!
So, there is at least one person interested in yoga in the
late afternoon-evening...let's say from 5-6:30pm....are
there any other people who may consider this once or twice
per week? just an informal survey to see if it would be
worth offering a class at this time....you can email me
personally at
jackie1@gorge.net thanks!
b. Further to cost, etc. of DESERT INNS; on our trip back in
October, we stayed at Catavina and enquired about discounts,
because we also do not have their own card, and asked about
one for having an FM3. The guy behind the desk didn't know
what that was, so I showed him and said Mexican Resident,
and he gave us a 20% discount from the posted rate.
c. Re: The Desert Inn (formerly La Pinta).....
Yes, we used our card last night at Guerrero Negro. Room
cost with card was $50.00 USD. There was a sign in the room
that said that dogs were not welcome in the room. We did
have a dog with us on previous trips and it was no problem.
Maybe they are changing their dog policy.
