Thanks for the visuals! I always blow by San Ignacio, as I'm in a rush to get south. I'll make a pit stop next trip and see it for myself now!!

come on over Mike !!!! we had such a good laugh with them when we saw them . We went to scotty's TWICE.... on the way south and then again on the way north.... We saw Ron and Rochele and Mike (another one) and met Elizabeth and her sister and ate some incredibly good food

Les had the HOG BURGER each time we were there...... ummmm, one might say he liked it !!

wilderone: the flea market was in Loreto and it is big big big. tons of gringoes and we saw lots of folks there too. Many people had produce so i guess it must be good. we were just looking around.

san ignacio has a certain je ne sais quoi to it .... it is peaceful and fun and has good ice cream and the mission church is great for wandering around in. there is the museum at Juanita's and also her simple delighful rooms. the yurts at san ignacio springs are amazing if you want to splurge. and the meals at RICE AND BEANS have always been satisfactory. you'll def enjoy it bajabass !!

the weather was really nice Diane - sorry I missed that question earlier ..it was NOT too hot. Really bearable which was a pleasure, a great pleasure !!! Loreto required A/C but that was because of the mosquitoes - boy were they attacking. Swimming in the pool in the evenings is a plus when you stay at coco Cabanas.

Having a drink with you was awesome BAJAME !!!!! thanks for coming over !!
