It was a colourful, cheerful celebration of World Chaîne Day for the Bailliage of Puerto Vallarta and the Chaîne in Mexico as a whole. A very special moment was honouring Pepe Díaz Escalera, one of the founding members of the Bailliage of Mexico, who had made a tremendous effort to join his friends and colleagues on this memorable occasion.
Fun, food and drinks characteristic of Puerta Vallarta, the prime tourist destination on the Mexican Pacific coast, combined with great camaraderie through having the sentiment of connecting with members worldwide on the Chaîne’s annual day.
Vive la Chaîne!
