JC's restaurant at El Burro Cove

 
 
Went by earlier in the day and pre ordered our clams, Juan Carlo goes out fishing/clamming and then the family serves up "catch of the day" literally.
  yummy clam dinner.

Cruisers Shrine, crews that come by here leave a memento of their visit, usually with their boat names on it


 Hiking to the other bay with our little group

view from above, San Juanico is a lovely place quiet, big lots to do and explore.
Good friends: crew of Rebecca, Moontide, Talion, Kanga, Pantera, and Dolphin.
 
Yum good food!
Just around the corner, pretty river, lots of green!

Loretofest in Puerto Escondito


I wasn't sure I wanted to go to Loretofest, it was a fundraiser for Loreto schools, but I thought it would be a mass of people and not much fun. Not nearly as many people as I thought, and it was great fun. Bands, food, a few seminars and just generally meeting up with friends you have made throughout the season.


One night they had a band consisting of local kids that sang and played great oldie songs in English, and some in Spanish, it was fun and they were good.
