Great pix (as usual)


Our gang was down that road in April, brings back very good memories.

But, we went to the "real San Francisco caves'
not a staged foto op from the museo...

Your images are fantasic. Audrey and I also loved dining at El Patron about three years ago. We will go back there in October! Can't wait after seeing your photos. Also, happy hour at Jungla Jims! :bounce:

Thanks folks...

Part 6 coming soon...

Bob & Susan, it was late in the day (dinner time) when we were taking a quick look at Narranjas. Saw Mexray's photos of it over the years and wanted to see where his and Pat's place was. Maybe next time!

Great stuff, as always, David...


...we stopped by El Patron one weekday afternoon for a cool drink. We decided the Shrimp c-cktail's were just too good looking to pass up!

A few local 'patrons' wandered in, two with guitars, and before long we had a Mulege 'Jam' session in progress...everyone singing and having a great time. Even though Patricia and I were the only 'Nortes' among the 15 or so there, we were welcomed into the 'fray' without hesitation. We traded several cool drinks with our new 'friends' and spent a wonderful couple of hours there!

Here's one of those Naranjos pictures you were talking about...that's Patricia floating in the Bahia right in the 'back yard' of our palapa.

Just about every evening, we sit out on the porch and watch the mountains over there to the East, on the peninsula change colors as the sun sets behind us...it's a view we just never get tired of! I've even been 'inspired' to drag out my paints and dabble a bit as I watch the sunlight have it's way with those mountains.

Hi Ray... We drove past all the palapas/ homes trying to find yours... But no 'Baja Time' stickers or other indicator was seen. It was late, and we just took a quick drive by before returning to Requeson.

David...


...Ours is the palapa with the las palmas roof ;)

Actually, we have a plaque with our names on it, right next to the entry door - but you can't really see it during a 'drive by'. We're palapa #8, from the south, Punta Arena end, and there is an old Pace Arrow Moho next to it.

Too bad you didn't have time to check out all the progress over at Bob & Susan's, just to the north of us on the other side of Armando's new 'Marina' project. We can't wait to get down there and sneak over in the middle of the night to go skinny dipping in their new pool...:o

From your Pic's it looks like the weather was bearable in 'Sur'...we can't wait to get back to the Bahia! Thanks for the pic's!
