Our 188 mile trip to here.
Had some heavy
rain and lots of thunder yesterday afternoon. And dark sky behind us – north –
and rolls of thunder this morning. Supposed to get heavy rain again in a while
and last off and on till Tuesday. At least it has cooled down to the mid 70s
but still HUMID! Kind of hung out around here yesterday except for a short
drive on the beach and then by road a ways south. This is heading north on the
beach towards San Blas. No one out on the beach ‘cause of the weather.
Only went as far
as where they are building a new wharf.
It happens to be
right where the new Autopista from Tepic Durango
road is doing for Mazatlan
Some serious
building going on.
We turned around
and head back south towards Aticama, passing the RV park.
Over the sand and
up the hill to the dirt road heading into town.
Passed some of
the oyster fishermen out getting their catch for the day. They use inner tubes
with a net attached to hold the oysters.
Just a view of
the ocean.
A mural we went
by – don’t remember from last time.
Another view of
ocean and tropical growth.
One of many banana
plantations.
Look at the fence
posts – they are growing into trees. Stick it in the dirt and it grows here.
A view of little
river at edge of Aticama – for those of you who read Tioga and George this is
where he stayed at lot while here. In fact it is where we met him. Now there
are palapas built there.
Driving north
through Aticama. Here too the road has been repaved. Thank goodness it was
really bad a few years ago.
Pass these guys
sitting in the shade of a dump truck. The boy is sitting the man is working on
something.
Today we hope to
get into San Blas to the market, but kind of waiting for the weather to stop being
so Wet!
