La Paz (The Peace) the Port of Illusions,
We enjoyed our daytrip to the capital city of Baja Sur. Walking along the Malecon, walkway along the tranquil shores of the calm water harbor where so many cruisers have anchored or moored in gave us a great way to get to know this city. Having fresh shrimp tacos, prepared two totally different ways by a seaside vendor allowed us to taste the flavor of Mexico and complete the sensory extravaganza that was already overwhelming our senses. The drive from Cabo first up the East Coast and mountainous roads along the Sea of Cortes and then taking the more direct road home (already feeling at home in Cabo) along the Pacific Coastal road through Todos Santos, watching the sunset, was a great way to spend a long day.
This road trip alone deserves multiple blog entries. I can just imagine it now, telling about Buena Vista and Los Barrilles, budding sea side fishing villages. And then stopping at El Triumfo, a quaint colonial town before entering the metropolis that is La Paz. So many new Pacific Beaches and beach communities to share with you. It is hard to believe that so many "Life-Experiences" can be taken in in just one day.
