A Day at Stone Island


We've been having fun with Mark and Linette doing some tourist things. Yesterday we took one of the little pangas that cross the harbour to Stone Island (actually a peninsula) just across from the old part of Mazatlan. There's a long sandy beach with coconut trees and palapas that offer shade, hammocks, chaises and whatever refreshment you'd like. A pleasant place to while away the morning and early afternoon. Later we walked through part of the old town and ended up having lunch at a place that overlooks the malecon and the big waves, then took the bus home. Today we're planning to drive up to El Quelite, a little town to the north, which was recommended to us by someone who lives here and made a comment on this blog. What an amazing thing the internet is!
