More Pix of Puerto Escondido

Hey...how's it going? Here are more pics of Puerto Escondido. A small sleepy surfing village. I say sleepy cause if your not catching waves your hanging in a hammock napping or under a palapa reading a book. At this time of the year the breeze is constant. Highs are in mid 80's while the lows are in the low 70's. It's been fantastic. I do miss seeing some rain though. We haven't seen rain here in Mexico since the end of September. That's a long time especially since I love a good storm.

This is the median that

separates the hotels,

shops & restaurants

from the beach area.

To the left are the hotels

while to the right is

the beach

I mentioned in a previous blog that Puerto Escondido doesn't have the fancy resorts or high rises that block views or host private beaches. Most of the hotels are up to 3 stories.

This is what most

of the hotels look like. This is actually a large one.

Umbrella's and lounge chairs are easy to

come by.

This is Playa Marinero Great for swimming

boogie boards & new surfers

Playa Zicatela

As you can see

lots of beach

which is great

for exercise.

But it's also for the experienced swimmer and surfer. Strong currents and large waves crash the shoreline. Our apt overlooks this beach. We enjoy hearing the waves in the mornings & evenings. We eat most of our meals outside on our deck.

These 2 photos are at Playa Principal. Most

of the locals bring their

families to this beach and

hang out on Sunday's.

We've been told that the waves are not perfect this time of year. They are large but they are crashing too close to shore. Humm.... They look good to me! Anyway, hope you enjoyed. It's been very nice here.

Unfortunately are time here is coming to an end. We fly out on Wed the 18th. Did you catch that? "Fly" out. We decided to fork out the money since we are so far from Belize. We would have had a 25 hour bus ride from here to get to Chetumal Mexico before crossing over into the Belizean border. We'll spend one evening in Chetumal to check it out briefly before heading to the island of Ambergris Caye.

We miss everyone and hope all is going well.

Love - B&B
