Los Barriles

The final destination; Playa Norte, Los Barriles on the Sea of Cortes.

Los Barriles is well known for kite surfing and kite boarding.
Sunrise is as beautiful as sunset.

The bus took on the light like a mirror.

The colors change as the sun rises higher in the sky.

The morning is the best time to paddle board, as the wind increases later in the morning. This boarder is with her dog.

Modified vehicles are everywhere on the beach.  If it works, why not.

Flowering vines line entrances to homes.

Inuksuk on the beach.

Cattle heading home after a day on the beach.

Lazy Daze..what a great place for margaritas and good food.

I had a lite beer after I saw Rexy pour Ed's margarita.

No sunset on the Sea of Cortes, just moon rising; it is equally as beautiful as the sunset.
Kathy and Hance.  What an amazing mother and son.  Kathy is a teacher and is home schooling Hance.  She has been  traveling Canada and the US prior to joining the caravan in January.  Kathy drove a Class C with a tow vehicle,                        " by herself on the "Baja No 1"  I need not say more.

Hance with a virgin margarita.  He loves the glasses.

Santa and Mrs Clause (Bruce and Sue) walking their 2 of 3 dogs...Buddy on the right is still limping on the broken leg.

Dave took me for a ride on his Quad.

The Mexican Government have a program to protect the sea turtle.  Unfortunately, these 2 were late to hatch...The employee told us that they wouldn't survive.  Sad!

We didn't have to go to the Farmers Market on Saturday; the market came to us.  How great is that.
An Infinity pool at a hotel we visited in Los Baririles.

Pool pop at the swim up bar.
Six of us took a road trip up the coast.  Diego Dave led the way, what a great guide.

Liz and Ricci.

The rock dwarfs the jeep.

Terry and Ricci walking the beach.

Shore fishing.

Actually, shore fishing was a skunk.  We hooked the line on the rocks; Diego Dave to the rescue.  He  swam out to save the lure.  We had so much fun with Dave.

Ricci found this coral washed up on the beach.  She put it against Ed's back to show the size.

More locals.

Ed and I enjoyed pulling off the road to absorb the beauty.

The turkey vultures on Ed's bike route; they greeted him every day.

Eds bike route, 40 to 45 km a day.

This is the stairway up to a monument.  Candles are always lit.


Need I say more!

Our last night in Los Barriles.  Drinks at Lazy Daze, what a wonderful group of people.
