First day of Lord of the Winds competiton here in Los Barriles. This is an international competition including both kite boarders and wind surfers. In some of the competitons, both types of surfers are in the race. Remember that you can click on any photo to enlarge it. The kites are very colorful and the wind surfers look like butterflies on the sea. Because they have to be translucent so the sailor can see where he/she is going, the sun shining through the colorful sails is quite beautiful. 
This is day one of the events. We just drove down the beach a way, parked and walked among the participants, the spectators etc. There are lots of vendors with 'refreshments' but there is no pressure, and crowd was having a great time with no rowdiness (well, at least not at 2 p.m.) We will go back tomorrow to see more of the events. We will also take chairs and settle in more comfortably. The wind was really blowing out there too; I'm sure I got a good 'sandblasting' on my legs! These photos also give a good view of how great the weather has been down here....lots of sunshine. And we see these folks in front of our beach "all the time".... happy trails.......
