Steve missed the Sea of Cortez, so we packed up yesterday and headed back to Playa el Tecolote, near La Paz. I was sorry to leave our mountain campsite--there wer a couple of hikes I still wanted to do, but it´s a place we would definitely come back to if and when we come back to the Baja. We will only be here a few days this time--it´s time to start a slow meander back north, revisiting some of our favorite places and checking out some of the ones we passed up on the way down. I´m in La Paz today dropping off laundry and getting some groceries. I also arranged to go scuba diving tomorrow. The dive sites are out by Isla Espiritu Sancto, where we took the boat tour to the sea lion colony. There is a shipwreck out there that we may dive, plus three other ships that were deliberately sunki to make a reef. We may dive at the sea lion colony as well--won´t know until tomorrow. Steve stayed out at the beach, and is planning on doing some sea kayaking or mountain biking while I´m in town.
Today is the last day of Carnival in La Paz--the equivalent of Mardi Gras. The malecon is lined with vendors, game and food booths, with a large grandstand set up for music. It´s kind of a zoo, but also kind of fun.
