Feb 12 to 22nd


Nothing special happened in the past 10 days other than we had all day rain on Wed Feb 17th and more rain on Thurs Feb 18th (3rd Thursday in a row that it rained – which is the day of the outdoor market in La Penita). 


Same daily routine of a morning walk on the beach, sometimes ending in a walk through town, have lunch then join friends to sit, swim, boogie at the beach for a couple of hours in the afternoon.  When we walk the beach, we usually see little crabs dashing on the sand at our feet.  When they stop, it is hard to spot them as they blend in with the colour of the sand.  Vic managed to capture one so we got a photo.







Vic and Eric boogie on a nice wave...not too big.


One day dropped into the fish vendor on main street to pick up some filets of mahi mahi – they were excellent!  Only 45 pesos for 4 servings.  We’ll stock up on shrimp and fish fillets for our journey north.  Luckily our freezer on the top of the fridge has plenty of room.

The mango trees are currently in bloom.  One morning we walked some of the back streets of town in an area where there was once an orchard of mango trees. 



A horse in a yard on the street comes to Vic looking for some food.

We have been following the Olympics thanks to our Star Choice satellite service.

Mon Feb 22nd we are preparing to leave Lo De Marco on Thursday this week.  Vic did an oil change on the RV.  Wednesday we will be packing up our patio furniture, awing, side curtains and string of solar lights.


On Wednesday evening, we all went out to our favorite local restaurant, Sugar & Spice, to celebrate Dale's birthday.
