January 25, 2015 - Playa Santispak

It was a pretty lazy day today, which is a good thing since I have managed to catch Tobey’s cold.
It rained a little overnight, but we woke to beautiful skies. We took a walk down the beach and visited with a couple from Canada and met their Aussie, Maya. It made us miss our Penny, but we know she is being well taken care of by our moms. Last report Penny was going for long walks, swimming in the lake, and take long naps. Lucky dog!
The RV park here is really little more than a leveled off sand parking area on the beach, but it just fine for us! We are camped in the cluster of RVs in the picture below. There are also some more beach parking areas past this road.
After breakfast we sat outside and read, enjoying the sunshine. We did see three or four dolphins in the bay, which was really cool. Later, we talked with another couple who are camped here, and they told us that they had been motoring around in their little dinghy and there were probably 200+ dolphins out there, swimming all around them. I want a kayak so we can get out and see that!!!

A little while later, three Mexican guys came back to shore in their boat and were selling fresh scallops they had just caught, so we bought some. One kilo of scallops for $150 pesos – just over $10USD for 2.2 pounds! We cooked them in garlic and butter tonight and they were pretty tasty.
This afternoon the clouds rolled back in, so I took myself inside to read and rest. Tobey walked the beach a bit and rested, too.

We have decided to head south to Loreto tomorrow, but plan to stop here on our way north later in the trip and spend more time.
