Thank you all for the kind comments.

Back in Ensenada. Disagreement on where to eat tonight. No hay problemas. 5 fish tacos for Ryland at Tacos Fenix (El Puesto)... and burritos camarones for Michelle at Mariscos Playa Azul.

Doug - so sorry we missed you guys on your way back. I didn't see your message from the night before until the following morning. Of course you guys are welcome to come out and see us - you now have my number so give me a call to let us know you'll be coming.

Looks like you had a great trip!

Long Drive


Seems we may have just missed you all when we stopped in at the Playa Buenaventura restaurant on Wednesday afternoon. I was talking to a young guy there and mentioned I'd heard of the place from this site and getting some soup, and he said The Baja Nomad had just stopped by (my gal overheard Mark say he needed to rest before the New Year's Party, so didn't get to meet him).

I had driven down earlier and picked up my other half in Cabo for the drive back up, and had to see the place after being entertained years ago by the endless thread...glad it all worked out! Great food and service there, unfortunately they were all booked up and we had to drive on.

Will try to post a report later...back to work...

Sorry to have missed the opportunity to say hello to both you and BajaGringo in person on this trip.
