A ride to San Ignacio with Frank, Sandi and their son Brad. (Feb. 13th)

Last Wednesday was a lovely day and as Frank and Sandi’s son Brad is visiting for two weeks we all decided to take a run up to San Ignacio.  We were up that way by ourselves a few weeks ago but….it’s always a nice place to visit.

Sorry about the spots!  That’s Brad and Frank in front and Sandi in the back crocheting.  Busy hands are happy hands!

North on the free road to the San Ignacio turn off.

This roadside stand in Coyotitan is always busy…even the big bus is stopped.

We didn’t stop and get radishes the last time we were by but today we did.  10 pesos a bunch and 10 pesos for a good sized bag of tomatoes.  I bought both!  We call this little place “ Radish Town” because of ….the beautiful big radishes or rabanos in Spanish.  Eric just loves them. 

This teeny tiny town now has a new church. 

The gate to San Ignacio.

See that metal pole sticking up…well that’s the water gauge.  A few years ago the flood waters were up to to the deck of the bridge!

A little chat in the square before we walk over to have lunch.

A very pleasant place to sit and rest and there are always people relaxing on the benches.

We were started off with two kinds of salsa and a bowl of avocado mixed with fresh cheese.  Yummy!

Eric had camarones rancheros….just like last time.

Camarones empanizado (breaded and deep fried) for Frank and Sandi as well.

Brad had pollo a la plancha or grilled chicken.

I decided to try fried chicken but I really could have done with only one piece!  Once again…no supper tonight.

Everyone happily eating…always good food here.

Lunch is over and we are ready to head home.

The church is really old…from the 1600’s.

We are just coming over the bridge heading out of town and in the distance you can see the little blue Jeep behind us. 

Another days ride with friends.  Very enjoyable for all of us.
