San Ignacio











We stayed at the "Rice and Beans" Hotel and RV park outside San Ignacio. Drove into plaza to see the ancient fica trees, the historic church, museum of cave paintings, and generally see the town. The cave paintings are replicas of paintings found high in the mountains. It is a 3 day mule trip and requires a government permit to see them. They are some 20 ft. up on the ceiling of the huge caves. Even the replicas are very impressive. I had a lobster dinner and Roger had the Carne Asada (steak) at the hotel that night. Hotel resturant and bar are in one small space, but the food was worth waiting for! I had to include a photo of one of the little tourist shops on the square. Streets were very narrow, and Mexicans 'cruise' through their stop signs... very interesting driving here.


Next day we were off to Mulege', Sanispac beach on the Sea of Cortez. Two magnificent days on the beach. More to come!


happy trails.....
