anyone remember the wonderful baker in BOLA?
I can't remember his name, but he had a bakery (near Las Hamacas) with a woodfired adobe brick oven. He made the best bolillos. That would have been
over new years in 1978/79.
Quite a party at Casa Diaz, too. The band came all the way from Ensenada.

Can't remember his name, only that he got tired of sweating to death in the summer and thought he's switch to selling ice cream. That idea was
laughed to death as who would have EVER imagined selling ice cream in Bahia back then. Now it is in every store. He was on to something back then.
P.
P.S. (this is the edited part, the parties at Diaz are still quite the thing. The bands come from a distance and donations are welcome that evening to
help with the cost.)

no, a different baker
the bakery your mention (pinkish house on the right as you head north) is no more
looks like it is just being used as a house

the original wonderful baker is before my time but I hear that Mauro (the Italian painter who lives next to the turtles) and his wife Patty are
planning a bakery and a cafe....she is a terrific baker (I have sampled her wares).

This is the young guy who lives in the two-story out where you guys were campingY North of Antonios? He's building the cafe on the hill west of the
pavement coming into town? What a trip. Also, off other posts, we're starting to hear more about Escalera Nautica. Do a search and check it out.
