La Bocana to San Felipe and Ensenada TALAVERA

We went on a mission to find some new talavera planters since mine are chipping away after 15 years in the desert sun.

Our Punta Abreojos friend, Pablo, had told us that they had seen some beautiful pots north of San Felipe. The assortment is unbelievable but so were the prices, which were in DOLLARS.












Truly an amazing collection to choose from at this store.








But, like I said, for the big size planters I wanted, the least expensive one was $125. A bit too much.

On our way back to La Bocana 3 days later, the store we bought the original planters in, in Ensenada was open at 8 am! BINGO!


We were in a hurry so i could not get the best shot but this store is huge and has everything from dishes to planter pots to outdoor tiles and more.


This is the front, which is on the street one turns left on to get to highway 1 in Ensenada. In street in front of the military base, so to say.







Inside the store.






These 2 bigger pots, shown here on our side porch, were $100 for both. Much better price than SFelipe.







These two smaller planters were two for 200 pesos after Les negotiated.








We will be going by again for more pots when we go for our second vaccine dose up in San Diego.

Exactly? I am the most directionally challenged human on the Planet.

I will try.

As one is driving south in Ensenada, at one point you turn left. Once you turn left, look for the huge pots in a huge lot, also on the left.

Is that clear enough hahahahaha

Let's try that again, shall we?


Drive south on Boulevard Lazaro Card en as. One word.
Turn left onto Gral. Augustin Sangines.
Keep looking for the hundreds of pots and bird baths on the left, do a U=turn and park in front.
This is precisely the normal route one takes to head south to San Quintin.







The seller did not negotiate down much on the big ones but the price is already muy bueno. He did on the smaller ones.

Whomever buys, please post photos!
