they are supposed to leave one claw and toss back the crab so it can feed itself and regrow the missing claw. nice sustainable fishery like that.....

i doubt it happens.

Looks more like a grab than a crab...

Oh yeah ... margaritas That's where was this story going. And yes it is Cielito Linda. I know this re hashing an old conversation but I ran across these pics and laughed my ass off... One wild afternoon/ night! Its gets way stupider.

Here's's a pic of Nomad Porky Pig who posted recently about the new pet free policy

Hmmm SCREAMING Crabs...... I wonder why? Any guesses??? Porky???

The margaritas could be called heaving margaritas. More pics to follow.....




Good times in the pretty little heaven!

Well, heres where it gets pretty stupid.

I never heard any Screaming crabs but my crew had been camped at Abreojos for 10 days and we were ready to whoop it up a little.

The Bar




Here's Bud wrestling with a plate of Screaming crabs and margarita #3




This guy was in a hard chargin SDSU fraternity guy and those margaritas bent him over




Yeah, we've all been there




Later when we got back the room we started playing body shots (take turns punching each other in the stomach and sides. a 46 year old teacher, a 27 yr old construction worker and a 20 yr old college student. Brilliant idea!:rolleyes:

You might be able to see some of the bruises on my hips. When I got home my wife and 3 daughters were not amused.




Well, there you have it ... Screaming crabs.....another baja memory with a souvenir. I love that hat!




Cant wait to get back down!




No worries
