Since arriving back in San Carlos Sharon and have been busy exploring the San Carlos/Guaymas area. When I was here in July I stuck mostly around the marina area, I rarely ventured into downtown San Carlos and I never went into Guaymas. Sharon and I now are becoming pros at riding the very efficient city bus system around town and over to the Walmart in Guaymas. Earlier this week we walked over to a really cool Palapa restaurant and bar on the beach and then strolled thru the many galleries and tourist shops...all the way scoping out the taco stands that line the main drag for future visits. Yesterday we headed into town, our original thought was to walk into town, stop at a place called J J's for a beer and some Al Pastor tacos and then go to the tienda (store) to provision for our mini cruise to Bahia Algodones today. We were then going to take the bus back to the marina, groceries in hand. Well one taco (or beer) led to another and we never made to the tienda. We did however make it to three different taco stands meeting and greeting people along the way. J J is a funny guy who always yells "who cares" after you order something or ask him a question.
So we never made it to the tienda and the busses had stopped running, but in true Mexican tradition, a guy that works in the local dive shop whom we had met earlier in the week quickly volunteered to give us a ride back to the marina.
We'll be heading over to Bahia Algodones later today (after we go to the tienda) for a couple of nights on the hook (anchor).....WHO CARES!
