             FIRST TIME TO MEET A 
         MEXICAN COUPLE IN PALAU  

ON MAY 25, 2015, I'm playing Spanish song "Cielito Lindo" in front of some Japanese and Chinese guests.

Fifteen minutes later, a Mexican couple came and had a drink and started to enjoy my other music. When they informed me that they are from Mexico, I started to play all-Spanish songs.

When I played "Quien Sera", they dance. The guy's name is also Roberto while Maria said to me that they are having a little argument in their room when they heard me playing "Cielito Lindo".

Roberto, the Mexican, thought that they are hearing a CD player playing that song. Maria is convinced that it's a live music being performed by a good musician.

So to make sure that it is really live music, they went down to have a drink or two and finally realized that what they heard is really live music.

The next day, the Mexican couple had dinner at Waves Restaurant of Palau Royal Resort. They enjoyed more Spanish songs that I haven't played at Breeze Bar ---
1. A Veces Tu A Veces Yo
2. Cu-curu Cu-Cu Paloma
3. Historia De Un Amor
4. La Bamba
5. La Malaguena
6. La Paloma
7. Nathalie
8. Noche de Ronda
9. Paloma Blanca
10. Quando, Quando, Quando
11. Quijote
12. Rancho Grande
13. Un Sentimental
14. Y Viva Espana
15. Hey
16. Solamante Una Vez
17. Adios Mariquita Linda
18. Amor, Amor, Amor
19. Isla Del Sol
20. Eres Tu
21. Volver A Empezar
22. Espana Cani
23. Besame Mucho
24. Quizas, Quizas, Quizas

I reminded Maria that "a trip to Palau is not complete without a trip to the famous Rock Islands". They are not divers so I recommended snorkeling. They don't have underwater camera, I suggest for them to buy a cheap one that's disposable.

She also said that their sons and daughters asked for photos of them showing the beauty of Palau.

Maria also befriended many staff (Filipino and Taiwanese) of Palau Royal Resort.
