Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto and his family spent part of last weekend relaxing at “Quinta Maya,” the Presidential retreat on the northern end of Cozumel.  According to various news sources the first family arrived on island Saturday, and the President was able to combine both business and pleasure, since he was able to attend the 11º Foro Nacional de Turismo 2013 in Cancun on Sunday.

“Quinta Maya” has long been a favorite retreat for many first families.  Mexico’s last President, Felipe Calderon, visited Cozumel on several occasions, scuba diving and bicycling around the island.  Hopefully Peña Nieto and his family will also enjoy relaxing in Cozumel.

An ex-Connecticut Yankee who has called Cozumel home for over 18 years, Laura ran away to the Caribbean years ago, bumped around the islands teaching SCUBA diving, lost some time in Jamaica, and finally stopped in Cozumel for a 2 week vacation that hasn’t ended yet. With a degree in Journalism from a fancy private college she convinced her parents to pay for, Laura writes, edits, and creates the weekly Cozumel 4 You news, social media, and promotional articles about the island, as well as moderates the Cozumel 4 You Facebook group, which currently has over 25,000 members. Her long suffering husband, Fabian, has long since resigned himself to having zero private life, as he’s been involved in her various schemes and plots since his arrival. Proud parents to a variety of rescue dogs and cats, Laura continues to be the bane of her traditional Mexican mother-in-law’s existence, as she muses her way through life in the Mexican Caribbean. ______________________________ Una ex yanqui de Connecticut quien llama hogar a Cozumel desde hace más de 15 años.
