Occasionally a BIG storm is a problem but not most of the time. Nice spot

Okay, one last one of the first sunset of the new year!

By the way, we had a great breakfast that morning at 'Marino's' in Ejido Delicias... it is a block or two west of Hwy. 5 (Km. 35)... in from Chelo's restaurant and the doctor's office... Excellent!!!

For dinner, we discover Baja Rob is a gourmet cook and he made us a fabulous shrimp bisque... wowswers!!!

The next day (Jan. 2) we must leave, but do so in a round about manner that includes a tour of the sulfur mine and El Berrendo Canyon which is a blue palm tree treasure!

Go to Part 2... for more photos and travel details of the Sulfur Mine, Canada el Parral, El Berrendo palm canyon, and more!: http://forums.bajanomad.com/viewthread.php?tid=14976

In fact Barry it is a problem for some!

Just a half mile south of Baja Rob's (which enjoys an extra wide beach), the beach has scalloped in front of a couple homes which lost their porches and are trying to protect thier homes.

I saw the same thing happen and destroy homes in 1977 at Bahia Santa Maria (on the bay) and Laguna Percebu. They are building homes on sand dunes and not solid ground. The coastine is dynamic. It is great to have an ocean view, but don't build on the high tide line or on sand!
