SisterChicks in Sombreros by Robin Jones Gunn

Sheila's comments:

This story is about two sisters in their 40's, Melanie and Joanne, who inherit beach front property in San Felipe, Mexico from their deceased uncle. They decide to take their first ever cruise to Mexico to take a look at the property. Between the hives caused by a special blend of guava paste during a spa treatment to fending off the "policia" with their coconut cake, these two laugh about the scrapes they endure. Both are surprised when the "beach front" property is a silver Airstream trailer parked on a slab of concrete, occupied by a lone figure "sitting" on the sofa and reading the newspaper. Surprise, it is only a stuffed Marlin to frighten off the locals. They are surprised to learn that the Airstream sits on 10 acres of prime beachfront and along the way Melanie quietly tells Joanne about her new exciting relationship-with Christ.
