I walked over and met John, Lori, Chuck and Laurie at Caleb's. It is a cafe and Bakery right next door to our RV Park. We met at 8:30 for breakfast.
From there we walked through the Farmer's market that takes place every Saturday morning. They have puppies for adoption, clothing, jewelry, rugs, produce, baked goods, all kinds of stuff. I just bought some Mango Empanadas and a cinnamon roll. Lori and Laurie each bought some earrings that they had seen last week but the woman didn't have the color they wanted so she told them to come back this week and she would have them for them. She did, so they bought them. Lori also bought a top to go with her new earrings.
After that I walked home, grabbed Bella and the truck and went off to pick up Rob at the Airport in San Jose Del Cabo (SJDC).
From there we drove to the little town of Mia Flores. The Canadians, our friends the Wright Brothers, told us it is a really cute British town and we wanted to check it out. It was cute. Many of the streets are still the cobblestones. We just drove through it.
From there I took him to the town of La Ribera. It is where I went with the group for lunch on the quads last Thursday. We drove around the town. It is pretty big.
From there we drove along the dirt road to the town of Buenavista. We were looking for the hotel the Gary, Jen, Rob and I went to many, many, years ago where they served us two very small margaritas that had us stumbling around acting crazy. Jen reminded us of the name of the place so we wanted to go back to the "scene of the crime" so to speak. What used to be a small hotel is now a hotel and Beach Resort. It is really pretty with only a very vague resemblance to what I remember.
We only wandered through it and then left. No sense pushing our luck by having a drink or anything.
From there we headed back up to the highway and back into Los Barriles.
Denese had told me about this awesome waterfall that they had found up at the end of the arroyo and I wanted to go see it. So when we got back we parked the truck and grabbed the quad and headed off.
It was awesome. Rob drove and after what I had told him about my ride on Thursday he pretty much had the throttle wide open. We drove along through the dusty dirt road until all of a sudden it was wet, and the rivulets of water.
And then very very wet
And then the waterfall
We climbed up and explored a bit
And looked back down at the quad
The fall was rushing pretty good
Tomorrow is the Baja 300. It is a 300 km off road race that begins and ends here is Los Barriles. There will be motor cycles, quads, dune buggies, rails and supped up pick-up trucks. They are setting up down at the hotel on the driving range so we decided to go down there and check it up. We heard it is a really big event.
Some of the vehicles are so awesome looking.
We each bought a T-shirt. Rob's has the whole route of the race on it and I bought one that said "off-road girl- Let's race!
We went back home and took showers and then walked down to 3 dog corner to join John and Lori for dinner. Friday and Sat nights they set up tables in this dirt parking lot and fix the awesome baked potatoes and hamburgers. Rob and I had the baked potatoes last weekend, tonight is the hamburgers.
There was a lovely sunset happening as we walked down.
We sat at a long table with John and Lori and were joined by two other couples. John had his Arizona sweatshirt on (they are from Tucson) and the man asked if it was from Arizona state. His son plays Baseball on their team. John is a big fan. He sat next to Rob and when Rob looked at him he noticed that the man (I cannot remember his name) had a Brockway Golf shirt on. Brockway is the little 9-whole golf course in Kings Beach (Tahoe) that we have played a million times and the only course that Rob has had a bad shot that hit a tree and went through a giant pane glass window in a house. As it turns out, they are the owners of the the course and it was their window that Rob broke. They were really nice people and we enjoyed the evening with them. They have been coming down for 20 years. They put their 4 boys in grammar school here in town and they have a big, beautiful home here.
After dinner we walked back and went to bed.
