Shrri, too bad you don't have good shipping out of Baja, you could sell on the internet and keep all the profits in Asuncion.

Ok, so Cindy and I have been in Asuncion for about a week now and absolutely love it here!

It is so much different than the rest of Baja. Shari invited me to go out Abalone fishing with Juan and all I can say is WOW!! What an experience.


Juan would get us so close to the rocks with the crashing surf pummeling the shore only feet from the boat:o


Those guys are quite the fisherman, and I was way impressed the entire time!


I put together a Gallery to go with the day on the water.

Very cool Emam. I was suprised how close to the rocks they were working. All that wave action must make for pretty bad visability down there. Do they take a light down with them to see?

Nope no light! I too was surprised at that, and being as they were in 30 to 40 foot of water, and it was so early in the morning, I cant imagine they can see too much.

I'm sure that the fact that they are so experienced helps in what they are doing, but you would never catch me in water that rough, unless I had Juan at the oars!

LOve your photos Emam...it's always fun to take a guy from Michigan out on the open ocean and WOW him. This is Emams casa on the town beach in Asuncion. We are so enjoying being in san roque...got lots of creative jewellery made, done lots of walking and swimming every day. We've been having a heat wave which has been lovely too. Abalone are thick up in San Pablo so the guys should have their quota filled quickly, probably next week...back to the beach...adios amigos

Thanks Shari!

Here is a picture of the Asuncion Nomad - Shari and her horse with two dogs in two. She road over to San Roque from Asuncion on a short day trip.
