here was our home for the last 2 weeks, el coyote beach in bahia de concepcion, just south of mulege in baja california sur, mexico. yes that is a palm tree, and yes that is a palapa hut, and yes that is monty with her awning up looking all happy in the sun. we used our solar panels for power which worked a treat, and we swam in the sea (got stung by jellyfish), went running along the beach, ate lots of fish - scallops, clams, giant shrimps (which freak me out because they look like giant worms) - read lots of our books, and looked at the moon and jupiter and 3 of its moons through a telescope which was the most amazing thing ever, went kayaking out to little islands, made lots of really nice new friends, and generally had a pretty cool chilled out time.
we are now in loreto, a bit further south, looks like a nice town which we will explore today. i spotted a used book shop so am pretty excited about that. next saturday we fly from la paz (further south in the baja) to mexico city for a night, then up to new york for 2 nights, then overnight from there to manchester to land on the 16th back in england. bert is pretty excited about seeing england again, he went there once a while ago. we're going to go for fish and chips in whitby, to see a play in stratford, and the beatles museum in liverpool, and other very english things. let me know if you have any suggestions.
i have a proper update of the last 3 weeks to come soon, including: fish tacos in ensenada; a puncture in the desert and a 6 hour wait until a mechanic arrived; the baja 1000 off road race (more a highlight for bert than for me); dolphins visiting us on the beach!
hasta pronto amigos - feliz navidad (casi), lucia xx
