LOCATION: Bahia de Kino, Sonora, Mexico. On Sea of Cortez, across from Baja California
WEATHER: Another day of perfection!
This RV Park is like a little town. People must gossip, as everyone seems to know about us by now. This morning as I started doing laundry, 3 ladies approached me (by name) and invited me to take a walk with them. It was good exercise. They told me that the "vegetable man" would be coming later this morning. They all have ship-to-shore radios in their RVs, and use this for daily announcements, as well as for monitoring the boats.
It was nice to be able to hang up the laundry on the clothesline.
The vegetable truck did come, announcing himself on a loud loudspeaker......"Verduras, Verduras."
He had a nice selection. He comes twice a week.
We bought jalapeños, zucchini, green onions, oranges, and cilantro. He weighed everything together and gave us the price....about $1.00
I made vegetable quesadillas for lunch with some of the produce.
Then, an old man came around selling pecans. Another selling souvenirs. Then a truck full of water carboys.
We took another long walk on the beach. I learned that most of the nice beach houses were formerly owned by Americans and Canadians, but now wealthy Mexicans are buying them up. (Supposedly from drug money).
Neighbors invited us to happy hour in their Rec Hall. Weird....men on one side and women on the other. The women were all talking about tomorrow's breakfast fundraiser at the Sports Club.
DINNER: Since we have been eating Mexican/seafood dishes since we arrived, I thought I'd change it up a bit. I made a mix of leftover couscous, cream cheese, green onions, red onions, leftover grilled hamburger crumbled, and julienned zucchini. I seasoned with basil and oregano. It wasn't pretty, but tasted good!
Another neighbor came over and gave us some fish he had caught today....more sand bass and a fish called golden eye. That will be tomorrow's dinner.
