Getting our Bearings in Ensenada

We were lucky to be hosted in Ensenada by Andrea through a friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend connection - we love those! We had a great evening chatting with Andrea about our route south and her time working in Canada doing art therapy with First Nations groups. Andrea's daughter Natalia had brought home a crippled Western Grebe from her evening walk on the beach so she and Karl had a "google race" to identify it and then continued to try and diagnose its illness over a pizza dinner. The next morning Andrea's son Damian stopped by with more tips on things to see and places to avoid as we tour through Mexico, and helpfully gave us a map of the Baja that we had been unsuccessfully searching for at gas stations. Much thanks to the whole family for taking us in and helping us plan our route south. We ate at 2 different delicous taco/tostada stands on our way out of town, snapped a picture as we rode along the beach and headed south into the hills through Santo Thomas towards San Vicente.Weiterlesen
