I had a lovely time trailing along with you on vacation, Changes! Ir's great that you two still enjoy each other's company. That means everything It's nice to finally meet you both in person:. What a lovely little break. The only time I have ever been to Mexico was a trip by car over the border to Tijuana Post a Comment. Don't forget to double click on pictures to enlarge. Hubby and I have been to many places in Mexico but, only to the ones you can commercially fly into.
This time we ventured to the closest one to us "Rocky Point" only miles away. We have always avoided having to drive our car into Mexico but decided to brave it with special Mexican insurance, of course. We chose to stay in town rather than in the northern condo area and the hotel " Penasco Del Sol " had recently been renovated.
We found it to be very nice and comfortable. The surprising thing to us was that it was off season and when they say off season We felt pretty much alone, with the exception of the last night when they put a group of young people right above us and they raised he-- all night long including going down to the beach and setting off firecrackers and smoke bombs. But in the restaurants and etc. It was a bit sad to see it so empty and the people hurting for business, one place that we stopped in all but begged us to stay for dinner.
Like most Mexican towns they have a Malecon and this picture exemplifies the most popular thing here When they say off season in Rocky Point it means it is too cold to play in the water and indeed it was about the same temp. It does not however, deter the people from going shrimping and we took full advantage We chose to go by Taxi to our nightly restaurant ventures and both were good. The first one "The Friendly Dolphin" had the most interesting menagerie of things.
From the outside it was all lit up like a Christmas tree and there were three stories Beautiful view, wonderful food and great entertainment and It was nice to have our car and to be able to venture around the little town but we found out real quick that you best follow their rules perfectly! The roads are not real well marked and there are many that are one way. You can't tell that until you see all the cars parked in the same direction and so by accident we went down one dirt road the wrong way.
