Full Story
This Halloween marks the 13th anniversery of Chris and Alma Rita. Quinta California's hosts met in the now defunct Kings Head Bar in Puerto Vallarta on "All Hollows Eve". For Alma Rita, it was hate at first sight. Fact is she just had one good eye, as the other was very infected - and at first could only see Chris as a drunken gringo. For Chris, well, he was drunk and both eyes saw things kinda blurry.....
By the end of the evening, unbeknownst to the two of them, magic and destiny had done its thing. Alma Rita and her sister sped off in a Taxi leaving Chris standing on the bridge at 3:00 am crossing Gringo Gulch. The two didnt see each other again untill New Years Eve begining thier long distance relationship. She lived in Mexico City, and he lived in Port townsend Washington with the dream of opening a small hotel in San Blas....
Interestingly enough, this Holloween marks exactally 12 years since Alma Rita moved to the Quinta California as well. The two then started thier life together readying the quinta (not yet named) to open for guests.

Congradulations to Alma Rita y Chris!
So happy for the long relationship you two have accomplished. Chris's deam came true with the hotelito, Alma Rita saw beyond the drunken gringo, and now they are together hosting the wonderful La Quinta California.
I want the mamacita that works in the mercado and makes liquados. She is in the first stall on left. Maybe she sees a drunken gringo with her bad eye? ;)
