Lunch in Rincon and a swim.

That was it for today.   In case you don’t know this blogging does take quite a bit of time and today I was tired.  So…no pictures. 

We made a run into Rincon just before lunch today after I finished yesterday’s post.  Rincon is very different from Los de Marcos.  A huge gringo winter visitor population, tons of restaurants, lots of accommodations and a street full of vendors selling T-shirts etc. and also a huge beach.  We had a look at the place that Eric’s brother and wife are going to stay in Don Pepe’s which seems nice and then wandered off to find lunch.  Not a problem to find in Rincon and we had a really nice one.  Eric had an omelette with lots of extras and I had the Mexican plate which had a bit of everything and was too big to eat. Both really full when we finished.

We did talk to a couple of people in the restaurant and they mentioned that Rincon has biting bugs as well (mostly at dusk) and they know quite a few people who have had Dengue.  Bring bug spray!  A quick walk and then back to Los de Marcos.

We managed to squeak in a swim before Happy hour and the swell wasn’t too big at times although Eric did get tossed around before I got in.  I was careful and stayed close to shore inside the break. 

I popped down (we have been sitting on the upstairs deck) to the park happy hour for a quick hello.  Very small group and quite quiet….just our style! Very nice people with two rigs from B.C. and one from Ontario.  They had all just returned from an eight day trip inland and were glad to be back.  We did discuss this and that and also how they brought their rigs into town.  Good to get some opinions from other RVers. 

We did wander into town for a couple of tacos for dinner and it was really rocking.  Saturday night and the taco stand that was deserted last night was overflowing tonight.  There was a big…

Quinceañera (pronounced: [kin.se.aˈɲe.ɾa]; feminine form of "fifteen-year-old"), also called fiesta de quince años, fiesta de quinceañera, quince años or simply quince, is the celebration of a girl's fifteenth birthday in parts of Latin America and elsewhere in communities of people from Latin America. This birthday is celebrated differently from any other birthday, as it marks the transition from childhood to young womanhood.[1]

This was just starting in the square and will probably go on late into the night.  Many, many people attending.  A huge expense for Papa. 

So, a quiet night for the Tycho’s and home to relax before bed.  Tomorrow we will pack up and then head out on Monday morning for Mazatlan.
