I think you misunderstood Diane...the guys in San Pablo scolded the van that went out before you came in..for leaving the gate open...it was obvious to them what happened when you showed up unannounced...nobody ratted on you...it is a very strict rule there and they need to keep each other in line. Anyone can visit there as long as they call ahead and it's well worth the trip in. These canadian guests had NEVER eaten lobster before...cool

Oh yeah, it was a trip! John has worked in logging camps most of his life so he LOVED this fish camp and fit right in! Yes canadians are gringos too!

San Pablo is a nice little settlement of a few homes, but it really is not what I would consider "remote". It is less than an hour from town---not really any longer than Punta Prieta or San Hipolito, and wasn't that a coop van that was taking people to town?

Bob,
We hope to take a lot more pictures on our next trip to Tortugas----Tortugas and the surrounding area are well worth a visit.

Diane

Yes, it it was a coop van which is why they got a scolding...they know better but may just have been too lazy to close the gate after them. Gosh, I guess it's all relative but most folks consider Asuncion rather remote and another hour on a usually bad dirt road down to a tiny camp situated on a cliff behind a big locked gate...is pretty remote IMHO...meaning a long way from a store. So if visitors go there and they feed them...there goes their supply of tortillas & salsa...I guess thier compaņeros could bring more out although they hate to ask favors and don't always have the cash to replace their food supplies.
