Day trip to Ensenada

fdt - 7-17-2007 at 10:17 PM

Wow, I had the oportunity today of picking up Natalie Ann at the San Diego airport and take her to Ensenada, it was a beautiful day, long border wait in the morning heading north, then went south on the free road all the way to Ensenada enjoying the beautiful countryside. As we got to Ensenada, we kinda got lost looking for our destination (HoseA) and at a stop light, as I'm looking to my right, in the taxi cab next to us is Jaime Fuentes, an ex employee of mine from way back so he helps us find our way. We had a delicious meal @ Cocteleria Mazatlan, Hose A, Magda, Natalie Ann and myself. I finaly had the opportunity to hand deliver some of the last stickers ( There are only a few left)

On the return trip I took the toll road (I did not spot the truck or dogs from the other thread in either direction)
It was a great day, Oh and by the way now I know why Hose A is our moderator ;D (inside joke).
Ahhh, Ensenada, La Cenicienta del Pacifico, Beautiful

Thanks Gene, I resemble that remark.:rolleyes::biggrin:

Yep, Judy, I made my escape and am looking forward to the next weeks. The ward in Berkeley will have to operate without my oversight. I suspect all the inmates are pleased.

Oh Diver... I left my big camera at home, but Gene promised me the loan of his very nice Kodak. Interestingly, we took it to lunch yesterday so I could get pictures of the historical event. Thing is, ya gotta remember to take the pictures. Gonna try to engage that part of brain today.

And a huge thank you to Fernando, who was so kind as to deliver me from San Diego straight to the door of my Mexican family. I had planned to take the bus from Tijuana, and the scenic tour was a most pleasant surprise. Fernando is such good company, most personable, muy amable... and he knows so much about the area. I saw and learned mucho along the way.

Some of you may not know or may have forgotten that Fernando/fdt offers wonderful walking tours of Tijuana. I highly recommend an outing with him. You're sure to enjoy it and learn interesting stories and facts. Do you have a link to a website for that, Fernando... or should interested folks simply contact you via u2u?

Hey, what about what you ate...

at Cocteleria Mazatlan?

I love that place, but get filled up too soon with the clams/cheese appetizer.

What are your faves?

Where in Ensenada is the restaurant Cocteleri Mazatlan?

DENNIS - 7-18-2007 at 07:25 PM

By the bus station. I'll give you a map when I see you.

I'm going to guess he was moderating your consumption of something at the ristorante.......hence, the earned moderator label.
