Guadalupe Teresa Pena Garcia
"Los Nombres"
Los Nombres or "names" are very important to Mexicans and most Mexicans have two "Last Names," with the second of the last two names usually beginning with the mother's maiden name. When both the paternal family name and the mother's maiden name are used the individual should be addressed by the paternal family name.

GPE Teresa Pena Garcia
Teresa Garcia purchased a vacation home in Los Ayala primarily because of the beach. She loves Los Ayala beach because the ocean waters are shallow, tranquil and safe for non-swimmers and children, and the fact that the waves are rarely large. She also enjoys Los Ayala because it is quiet and not too, crowded. Teresa has nine children, 30 to 58 years of age at the time of writing; four girls and five boys. Her children also enjoy regular vacations in Los Ayala but they prefer to stay at one of the beachfront hotels.
While enjoying vacation in Los Ayala, Teresa enjoys shopping in La Penita and she especially likes to visit Guayabitos to shop and to spend some time at the beach. She loves Jaltemba Bay area primarily because of all the beautiful beaches, and she especially likes to spend the day at the Punta Raza and Boca de Narjanja Beaches...
Teresa Garcia loves to cook and enjoys making dishes with the abundance of fresh fruit, vegies and fish so plentiful in Jaltemba Bay. Her favourite restaurant in Los Ayala is " Boca del Rio" on Los Ayala beach. Her favourite dish at Boca del Rio, is Pescado Zarandeado, a traditional grilled fish dish found in this area of Pacific Mexico.
Teresa was married for fifty years to the love of her life "Roberto Lopez" who passed away. Tersea and Roberto celebrated both their silver (25 years) and golden (50 years) anniversary by getting renewing their vows on both occasions. Teresa advised me that renewing your wedding vows at both 25 and 50 year milestone, with a special ceremony is a special Mexican tradition. Roberto Lopez is sadly missed by Teresa and family, but they enjoy many special, memories which they are fond of sharing when they visit Los Ayala on vacation.
Senora GPE Teresa Pena Garcia owns and operates the vacation home "Casa La Palapa," a charming, three bedroom vacation home located just two short blocks from Los Ayala beach...
At the time of publication, Teresa Garcia was 83 years of age. Teresa attributes her good health to a healthy diet consisting primarily of fish, fresh fruits and vegetables; daily walks and regular vacations in Los Ayala.
Teresa is from Guadaljara, Jalisco and has enjoyed the luxury of owning a vacation home in Los Ayala, Nayarit for the past twenty two years. She is quick to confirm that the slow paced leisurely lifestyle here is probably major factor in her good health and youthful looks!
