LA PAZ LUNCH SPOT |
We decided as we had such a magical time whale watching we did not want to risk another trip.
I had been looking forward to visiting La Paz – means Peace – It did not live up to its name! It's the capital of Baja, we drove round
and round looking for the campsite with no luck. We found a Walmart,
then the beach – had lunch – then left, headed south again, back
to the Pacific side and stopped at Todos Santos, a palm grove and
mission town set uphill from the beaches, named as one of 30 “Pueblos
Magicos”(Magical Towns) one of Mexico's most picturesque.

MISION DE SANTA ROSA DE TODOS SANTOS |
|
FOR TAMAR |
Spent
a couple of nights at Todos, got our laundry done for us - 100 pesos
for the lot, spent the morning looking round the shops then walked
two miles to the beach and had a lazy afternoon sunbathing,
photographing pelicans, watching the fishing boats bringing their
catch ashore by going full steam onto the beach missing the crashing
waves. Corinna spotted a blow fish that had been swept ashore and
Jamie did try to send it back into the sea without success.
We
had a fun evening when we hit the town, margaritas, beers, Tacos, big
Burros and poor Roy burning his mouth when Jamie and Corinna
suggested the yellow coloured sauce was mango – it was sooo hot it
numbed your lips – Jamie then decided it was probably fresh
chillies and tabasco!
