Property Hunt

Well yesterday we were out for about two hours looking at houses and land here in Isla.  We discovered that we do really want to buy a house here.  We have always wanted to but it seemed that might not be possible as it is more expensive here and were going to concentrate on Merida and the Gulf Coast.

BUT, it seems it might be possible.  We saw 5 homes yesterday, and two we will go back to see the inside of as owners were not available to show.  We saw one that we fell in love with immediately.  I will not post pics of this property until it seems possible we can actually purchase this, don't want to jinx it!

Needless to say, we both went WOW!  Graham are lucky in the way that we are very much in sync on what we like, it was the same with our house in Seattle.  I remember when we were walking up the stairs in our house to see the second floor and we both turned around and looked each other and said silently to each other "this is the ONE"!  Same thing here...if its meant to be its meant to be! Great believer in that...

After our search our real estate lady dropped us off in town and we had a lovely lunch and Picus and we both sat there silently for a moment, we were both thinking the same thing...could it really happen? Could we possibly own something here so beautiful? Its like a dream.  Of course we are already designing the inside, what we want and where.  You know when that happens that its the one.

Apparently this property which has the most magnificent view of the caribbean has been vacant for a couple of years.  It does have a two story shell on the property at this time. The possibilites are endless as far as the design inside which is very exciting in itself.

We got back to our Casa at 3pm had a sleep then at 5pm we left with Grant and Janis, the couple that are renting the other apartment next door to us to Chedraui, the big new grocery store here on Isla.  Omg, what fun! We shopped and shopped and then hauled all of our bags on to the tiny golf cart and away we went.  It was a very warm night and a blast whipping down the road in the dark to bring back our goodies.

We sat outside with our new friends until midnite chatting and laughing and having a great time.  They are super people and we are so lucky to meet them.

Here is a pic of the sunrise this morning....beautiful!  We are so lucky here, sunsets on one balcony and sunrise on the other.  We love this place!
