Yesterday we met Ros and Ben for breakfast for one last visit before they head home, then went on to the beach as usual for a couple of hours. In the afternoon we power walked about 5km to the Mega Store where we were delighted to find folding travel beach chairs. They are surprisingly hard to find anywhere here. Then took the bus home and walked to the beach in the evening to see the sunset.
Today was much more active. Robin and Sergio picked us up just around the corner (they have a rental car) and we drove about 90 minutes up to the little surfing village of Sayulita. We packed food and beer for a picnic and had an awesome day in the sun and surf. Gail went boogie boarding and loved it. There were so many surfers there it seemed like Hawaii, and lots of them were young – maybe 10-12 years old with of course lots older too. There is a surf shop and instructors for lessons and they seemed to do a booming business. The water was very shallow quite far out but the waves were high so all in all I can see that it would be a perfect place to learn.
When we finally got home we all went out to dinner and came home fairly early. All that fresh air today has us very tired but HAPPY of course!
