March 3. Another $50 day!

You have got to love vacationing in this country, with the warmth, beaches, nice people, reasonably priced hotels and interesting shopping--at less than $50 per day in certain spots.

Today we were actually well under that figure. Our hotel, across the road from the beach is great with its pool and fruit and smoothy bar. This is what we see across the road each day.





This morning I went for a walk in the beach to where the fishermen congregate. For $5.00 I had a nice tuna that would be enough for 3 large meals! We have a very nice outdoor kitchen here and Ade put together a wonderful meal.




On our beach walk today we went beyond the sand to a rock cliff formation that the city had cut out an ocean side walkway within the rock face. It is a camera-person's dream with the emerald water and surf pounding below your feet.






Toward the end of the 3 km walk it got pretty warm so we started walking back on the roads, taking shelter at times under the many shade awnings of retail shops--Ade lucked out and bought a nice pair of shorts. We eventually flagged down a taxi for the approximately 5 km ride home. Interesting that every cab fare here and in Huatulco has cost us $1.50 - $1.75 -- pretty good deal.



From there to lunch, then the pool and finally a 5:45 sunset. It gets dark quick here but that is good because it keeps the temperature down a bit.
