Winding Down Our Pescadero Days

 About the time we went to La Paz, Bruce noticed the most preferred flights out of Cabo to home were disappearing quickly, so we booked our homeward flight for March 10.  Although our remaining days in Pescadero are numbered (we leave here on Thursday), we look forward to 4 days in El Sargento visiting friends Cindy and Vince before making our way back to Hotel Aereopuerto in San Jose del Cabo.  We won't see Pescadero again until our next (fingers crossed) trip to Baja.

As I look forward to our return to family, friends and good coffee, I try to pay special attention to what I'll miss down here, like having the Pacific Ocean in our backyard.

The wonderful weather, the music of spoken Spanish and the morning birdsong are the big obvious things, but it's often the little everyday things I miss.  So I'm trying not to take them for granted.  Things like taking my morning coffee on the porch, and watching the fountain to see which birds stop by:


Our outdoor reading/living room:

Listening to the wind chimes which seem tuned to play "I don't need no diamond ring...."

 
The easy presence of little green limes just the right size for the squeezer and offering just the right tang to our drinks:


Sunsets on the ocean:

Sharing laughs with friends on the "sunset bench:"

Let's face it; I'll just miss our simple barefoot, toes-in-the-sand lifestyle down here.




Thursday we head to El Sargento for more adventures and friends. To read about our first trip there via public transportation read Journey to El Sargento from March 2014.  We're very happy to have a ride from La Paz this year!  To see what kind of adventures Cindy and Vince found for us those first years read Lively Fishing on the Sea of Cortez and Camping on the Beach also from March 2014.
