Dreamin' of Sailing

Loreto

11 February 2017
We had such a great week with our Rotarian friends from Bend. As always, a good combination of work and play. Q was flying back to Bend today, Robert was picking up his wife, Elayne, and Gwen and Suzanne were staying in Loreto for a couple of days. We drove to Loreto in the RV to join them all, and we planned a day trip put to Coronado Island for snorkeling and kayaking. What a day. Totally magical. This must be one of the top 5 beaches in the world!! We saw dolphins, sea lions, blue-footed boobies, and lots of great fish. I would definitely come back to this island and just spend the day swimming, snorkeling, hiling, and walking the beach. What a beautiful spot!! With wonderful friends!!!
