This warm and beautiful photo is the entrance to our home for the next three days.
And just across the street and up 1/2 block was our favorite cappuccino place, or Ron's favorite cappuccino place.
And once again, the central park in Sayulita which is not really busy until the sun goes down
Sayulita is famous for its surf and as a result there are many rental places and surf schools. This place does both.
And for the next two photos you can see the surfers at their finest. There were many with heads bobbing all over the sea and only a few would catch the right wave.
We did a day trip to Chacala another 60 km up the coast as we had heard good and wonderful things about this beach. Fine and wonderful it was and we would have liked to have stayed for a day or two but besides one hotel that was livable and two small stores, that is all there was. The lady that ran the hotel got under our skin with the many rules and regulations she had about her place so our stay there was for only an hour instead of a couple of days.This cute little guy entertained us for part of the time we were on the beach in Chacala.
And this is the beach. It was more than likely the prettiest beach we have ever seen, here in Mexico. And we saw it.
Back in Sayulita, Nancy is having a chat with a couple from Wisconson.
We have moved again, another 30 km up the coast to Guayabitos and this first photo is the street corner from the balcony of our bungalow (a room which includes a kitchen).
And from the roof of our hotel, the church which is on the central park.
Only 24 years old, with 3 little children, this beauty is our house mom and she has taken us under her wing as if we were her children. Most interesting as she is young enough to be our grand daughter. Her children are just as cute and we will catch some photos before we leave.
Our room is the middle balcony, on the top floor. All the rooms on the top floor are brand new, only started occupancy last week and curtains only hung today. The plates and cups still have the stickers on them.
There are other, much fancier and much more expensive places to stay in this town and the next three photos show some of them. All of them are right on the beach and we are two blocks away.
Whatever type of seafood you would like, all can be had, cooked and on a stick.
The tide is out so it makes for easy walking. The beach here is lovely also but much busier than Chacala.
Pelicans, waiting for anything to be dropped but mostly they hang out where the fishermen are cleaning their catch for the day.
This couple informed us that they were newly married and she trusts him enough to allow him to cover her with sand. That is true love.
The main and not so busy street of Guayabitos.
We are enjoying the coast more than we thought we might but so far have not been tempted to buy swim suits or lay on the beach or go in the water. Travel on this coast is much costlier than other parts of Mexico but Nancy is helping with our budget by cooking all our meals, as all lour hotels except the first one have had kitchens. She says it is kind of like camping. We have mainly been eating seafood and we have become experts in peeling shrimp. We buy large, raw headless shrimp and 1kg costs $10.00 Canadian. It lasts us for two or three meals. And we love them. Second in line is Dorado (Mahi Mahi), about the same cost.

We are hear for a couple more days, then just a short trip of 10km up the coast to La Penita. La Penita is not a tourist town but a Mexican town and it is the central town of all the small towns around here.
