A SPECIAL NOTE FROM APACHES BAR PUERTO VALLARTA

Photography: Nick Maston

Ricardo and Geoff the New Owners

The history of Apaches from Mari Ann, the original owner, and a welcome introduction of the new owners! In 1997 I made a personal decision to move to Puerto Vallarta. I took a year leave of absence from my position in Social Services and decided that Puerto Vallarta needed a Martini Bar, at that time there were none. After looking at over 20 storefronts, I decided on a location on Olas Altas. It was small but had potential. A design was sketched out on a napkin; bonuses were negotiated with the workers as an incentive to complete the workwithin two weeks. The project was finished in 2 weeks….much to everyone’s surprise! However, the liquor license was denied. In those days, you were allowed a 10 minute sitting with the Mayor or Vice Mayor. After a conversation with the Vice Mayor, explaining my dilemma, She issued me a license. The name Apaches was chosen because I felt like a “warrior” after jumping through all the hoops. I also have a tremendous amount of respect for the Indigenous people. Not 24 to mention, it begins with an “A”, which puts you

at the top of the list! I met Endra 2 years later at table number “5” and we have been together for 17 years. Endra as the bartender has made a great deal of people happy over the years. Of course Apaches would not be the great place it is without our wonderful staff, Freddie, Chuy, Felipe, Alejandra, Julieta and most recently Ricardo. Also, Apaches owes its success to Andre, owner of Apaches Bistro. Andre’s culinary skills and delights have added a great deal to Apaches success. However, most important is his friendship, and the best neighbour anyone could ask for. Endra & I would like to all of the people who have supported Apaches over the years and hopefully will continue to support the new


owners, Geoff and Ricardo. They are wonderful guys and will continue to keep the spirit of Apaches alive. Thank you for all the wonderful years of friendship. WE LOVE YOU MORE!!! Endra & Mari Ann A note from Ricardo and Geoff the New Owners: It was in 1999 when I fell in love with Puerto Vallarta, my first time here as a tourist enjoying all the things tourists do. In the years that followed, my passion for this city grew to the point of creating a dream to live here one day, one we all have aspired to at one time or the other. In 2013, while on holiday, I met my current partner Ricardo. The deal was sealed. I went home to Winnipeg that winter, making the decision to leave my job as a Psychiatric Social Worker and make Vallarta my new home. Over countless trips, like many, I developed great friendships with Mari Ann & Endra and since then, Apaches became our home away from home. Great times spent there over the years and many lasting friendships were made. Like everything, things change and Mari Ann informed me of their intention to move back to Canada. With that, the decision was made that Ricardo & I would carry the torch for them upon their departure. It is truly a gift that we were given to have this exciting opportunity and we embraced it with open arms. We look forward to carrying on the spirit of Apaches, a place where new friends meet and old friends gather. We will miss the girls terribly and wish them nothing but happiness and success in the years to come. We are already looking forward to seeing them during their future vacations back to our lovely Vallarta. We thank you both for this great opportunity. We will make you both very proud!! Ricardo & I would also like to thank everyone for their support, our great staff, Freddie & Alejandra and our super neighbours over at Apaches Bistro, Andre, Chuy, Julieta & Felipe. We could not do this without you. To all our loyal customers, old and new, we remain committed to providing you with great service and a place you will continue to call your “home�. Again, we thank you for your continued support and look forward to seeing you all back at Apaches very soon. Always, Ricardo and Geoff 25

FIRST GAY COUPLE MARRIED IN VALLARTA CELEBRATES AT CASA CUPULA Christian and Angel were happily surprised they were to be wed by Puerto Vallarta Mayor Arturo Davalos, among the first same sex couples married in Puerto Vallarta! The happy couple’s wedding ceremony can be seen here. All of us at Casa Cupula are especially proud because Christian worked here about seven years ago, as our Systems Manager. Around that time that he met Angel, and they have been together since.

US for a new job this week without Angel who will be joining him as soon as possible. That demonstrates a very important reason why marriage equality is so important, practically speaking. Upon hearing this news, we were delighted to offer a brief but romantic Honeymoon package as our gift to the happy couple in our Sayuri Suite. It was quickly decorated by our romance-loving staff with rose petals, candles, swan towels and more flowers as part of our

Both were surprised when they were the first couple married (shortly followed in the ceremony by two women), and that the Mayor himself was to preside. Their ceremony, a civil ceremony here in Mexico, was also on local television and featured on the Mayor’s Facebook page. Gay weddings have been in the works in Mexico since last June, when the Mexican Supreme Court declared unconstitutional laws that blocked same sex marriage. Since then it’s been step by legal step, including changing the law in our state of Jalisco, until finally the proper forms were available to carry out the marriages here in Puerto Vallarta last week. Christian and Angel joined Casa Cupula guests at our Friday Night Warmup Party on April 22, where they were congratulated by guests and staff, and joined in a first dance for everyone. They haven’t had time to organize a formal event, as Christian is headed to the

“Den of Romance” package. Check out our wedding and honeymoon packages at www. casacupula.com/ weddingspuerto-vallarta.html. We congratulate Christian and Angel and wish them all the best together! We also would like to thank Mayor Davalos for the support of our vibrant LGBT community here in Puerto Vallarta! Join us at Casa Cupula during Gay Pride in late May to celebrate this incredible step forward! We look forward to hosting many more gay and lesbian nuptials!

XOLOITZCUINTLE The Mexican Hairless Dog

According to Aztec mythology, the god Xolotl made the Xoloitzcuintli from a sliver of the Bone of Life from which all mankind was made. Xolos were considered sacred by the Aztecs, Toltecs, Maya and regarded as guardians and protectors. The indigenous peoples believed that the Xolo would safeguard the home from evil spirits and intruders. They were often sacrificed and buried with their owners to guide the soul to the afterlife. De acuerdo con la mitología azteca, el dios Xolotl hizo el Xoloitzcuintli de una 130

astilla de hueso de la vida de la que se hizo toda la humanidad. Xolos eran considerados sagrados por los aztecas, toltecas, mayas y considerados como guardianes y protectores. Los pueblos indígenas creían que el Xolo podía proteger la casa de los espíritus malignos e intrusos. Fueron sacrificados y enterrados a menudo con sus dueños para guiar el alma al más allá.

WHY PACO MY MINI PIG AND NOT AT DOG OR CAT? Por Alfonso DĂĄvalos

F

First I want to say that it has been an adventure since I the decision to have a mini pig to be my companion and friend. After analyzing all pros and cons, I told my boss about the idea and his first reaction was A MINI PIG! Really? After the shock, he told me that I should get informed and learn everything there is to

164

know about mini pigs, which I had already before speaking to him. Mini pigs are the smallest pigs, they are very smart, extremely clean, hypoallergenic, don’t smell and they never eat and pee or poo in the same place. I can honestly say that they are smarter than dogs and cats, which

I love, but the intelligence of mini pigs has surprised me. Paco Adobo has already learned some tricks. I have to confess that I also learn something new about Paco Adobo day after day. He is very social, I take him every day tothe office and he just sits there with me during my floor time, he goes to


Alfonso Dรกvalos from Tropicasa and Paco Adobo, the mini Pig

showings and he is my companion in my Open Houses on Fridays. The farm recommended to walk him at least 3 times a week and to bathe him every 10 days with warm water, they also told me to be extra careful during the first 5 months with the changes of temperature. Mini Pigs special diet consists of zucchini, baby formula, special pig food, water and electrolytes, red apples and cucumbers.

Want to meet my mini pig in paradise and meet the coolest real estate team? Follow us on Facebook: Alfonso Davalos Tropicasa Realty and Paco Adobo. For more information on Puerto Vallarta living or real estate, please contact me by email: alfonso@tropicasa.com and visit my website: davalosrealestate.com to preview my listings.
