THUMBS UP - ANSWERS - DISCUSSIONS- This category must have email address.

a.  We went to see Sterling the magician last Saturday night at the Palmas Hotel. After living in Vegas, we expected the show to be slightly "hokey"..:-) IT WASN'T!!!! We were entertained for an hour and a half with a magic show in both English and Spanish. Sterling performed all the standard "magic tricks" and even a few new ones! The plan was to serve dinner and have a show but there weren't enough takers for dinners so it was just the show. Sterling is planning on coming to Los Barriles once a month if he has enough of an audience. It's a VERY FUN way to spend a weekend night and well worth the $20!!

b.  We are so very lucky to have Connie Heinen and Amparo in our LB community. "Solutions" Clinica de Belleza "Spa Day", yesterday with Connie Heinen and Amparo, was a wonderful relaxing experience. Connie uses the best products that smell so good and leave my skin feeling clean and refreshed. Plus a special paraffin dip for my hands, along with soothing music. My special gift was a huge red tin heart that included 6 products to clean and moisturize my face. To top it off, Amparo gave an unbelievable massage, for ONE hour, with her "healing hands". What a treat! An experience that I treat myself to on a regular basis and at a great price. Give them a try and you will be hooked too! Sandy Gerow

c.  Great airfare on Volaris! Only for the brave at heart round trip La Paz to Tijuana $72          (December 1 to 12).  No Name
