This delightful fishing village had
two bays, one to the south, which you can see the boats anchored in
here, and one to the North, which you can see in the background of this
photograph. The rough road you see leads all the way to La Paz. |
| We followed the donkey trails
through the hills and were rewarded with some great views of the bay. |

Kayaking seems to be quite popular
around here and this village offered one of the view places on the Baja
where you could buy basic supplies and plenty of fresh fish. |
| This is a view of the North
anchorage and the salt drying flats, which was the other source of
income for these villagers. There seemed to be a plentiful supply
of fresh water and the houses were all nestled in the shade of
palms. The road from La Paz finished here. |

We followed the 'road' to La Paz for
a few miles and came across a deep arroyo which led to another village,
and we assume a ranch. These cows were taking shade in the arroyo
which was another 2km from their home. |
| Another evening with Scottish Mist
aboard their yacht which became our second home. |

 |
The road to La Paz, and the villages
in the mountains, was very basic, and the locals still used donkeys to
transport water and other supplies from village to village. We
passed a Mexican on his donkey whilst we walked on the road, but we
thought that might be rude to take a photo. Instead these guys
happily posed for the camera. |
