Weekend in Ensenada


We decided we wanted to check out Poco Cielo for the weekend, so we did, and ventured into Ensenada for some tourist shopping. Got a new leather belt and a couple bottles of Viagra. Just kidding about the Viagra. Here are some pictures.























We were gonna head back to the hotel but decided to cruise to Ensenada for the heck of it.







Satyed in the Mexican Room at Poco Cielo. Then went to dinner at Splash. Good food. They bought fireworks and blew them up on the beach at La Fonda.














Decided to cross back in Tecate. Line looked like 4 hours so we bailed back to the secret border crossing where it only took 45 minutes.
















Extra credit if you can identify either of these two men.

no extra credit for me but the added intrigue of a secret crossing and the looks of a good time made it worth while, in my world.....:light:

Interesting use of the word, "Mamacita" but fits right in on an Adelita's ad.
Mamacita is considered derogatory...meaning Madam, as in a hoarhouse, which Adelita's is. And a fine one at that. :biggrin:

The border crossing is at TJ's new crossing. The border crossing at the end of the report is Tecate.

Poco Cielo is right next to La Fonda in between Rosarito and Ensenada.

It would be if you were talking to a madam, but other than that, be careful where and when you use the term. It can put you high up on the chitlist.

You may be thinking of "Madrecita."

By the way....Yes. I'm sure.
