Have fun!!!
A few months ago, Google added all of the streets in Playa del Carmen to their maps section, finally delivering a clear and accurate map of Playa del Carmen. A few weeks ago, they enhanced this by adding Street View; a street level, panoramic perspective of almost all of Playa del Carmen. We have started to implement this technology into our local restaurant and bar guides.
U.S. Retirement Trends in Mexico's Coastal Communities
During much of the past decade Mexico has become the top overseas retirement destination among American retirees. In 2000, an estimated 1 million Americans were living in Mexico on either a part time or year round basis and that number has grown in recent years.
This year we are proud to announce that we are adding to our media family, and we have hired 3 new people to help with the everyday operations of our little company; Musketeer Media. Virtual Playa has taken on a new person to assist our Web Guy in web development and consulting, Playa Maya News is lucky enough to have found someone to do some new promotional projects and sales, and we have also hired an administrative assistant to help with billing, appointments, and overall organization. We will be making a formal announcement in January so stay tuned.

A special thank you from the Peanut Pet Shelter in Playa del Carmen!
Dear Friends of the Peanut Pet Shelter,
As the year draws to a close, we started to compile a list of all the people we would like to thank for their wonderful help and support throughout 2009. However, as the list grew longer and longer, we realized what an impossible task it would be. Our list of Peanut Pet Shelter friends is over 800 strong. The warmth, kindness and generosity of our friends keeps the shelter running and the animals alive - fed, wormed, vaccinated, medicated, medically treated and sterilized.
