Visit to La Paz

We are n La Paz now, at an RCI timeshare just outside the city. We left Los Barriles 1/22/11, making a stop at the Bay of Dreams for lunch. This is a resort complex I guess, on a beautiful bay, out in the middle of nowhere. There is a golf course, a few buildings in a residential portion of the property, and a great restaurant with a gorgeous view of the sea. This route also took us away from the mountain highway to La Paz, so though it was a longer drive (somewhat) it was new country for us and not all those winding curves! We checked in to the La Concha (The Shell) and checked out the beach. There is a very nice pool, outdoor bar with food service and service right to your palapa from the staff. The food is excellent and so is the service. However our bed is like sleeping on the floor and there is not a comfortable chair to sit on in the living space! We have spent wonderful days on the beach on cushioned lounges, and I wanted to take the cushions in to sleep on! We've driven into La Paz a couple of times. Roger is still favoring his left leg so we are not doing much walking on the famous maleco'n. He did manage to find a coffee house though and get a 'fix'... however, this is Mexico and not Seattle. They are more into Mode'lo cervesa than mochas or lattes. For the most part the weather has been just beautiful. I did buy a hoodie sweatshirt and was glad to have it today as we have a little overcast. This weather would be a warm day in Washington, but how quickly we have become accustomed to WARM weather, every day, all day. I think tomorrow we will head back to Los Barriles. I am getting too spoiled with all the great service. Having to cook a meal or make my own bed will be hard to get used to again! Remember not to waste today, it wont come again... happy trails...
