Los Barriles to Loreto
We had a rest day in the resort at Los Barriles, it was great to sit back and recharge the batteries. I tried my hand a SUP (Stand up paddle boarding). I didn’t fall off which disappointed Andy but it’s a little boring by yourself. They have a great little pizza/hamburger window by the pool. The burgers were great and a welcome change. I spied a workers cleaning up the palm fronds around the pool so that made for some interesting photos. Other than a couple of quick snaps of the resort I didn’t take photos today.
Back on the Road. A lovely cool start to the day as we head north on our return back to Los Angeles Once again into the mountains, it then warmed up in the desert a little later.
The views coming down the mountain in Loreto were stunning as were the twisties or curves in the road. We arrived in Loreto just early enough for me to head to the marina, my aim was to capture the Magnificant Birds which have been flying around, unfortunately it was not to be. I had to be content with the Brown Pelicans and the feeding behaviour. Unlike our Australian Pelican who dip their bill in the water to catch fish, the Brown Pelican will dive for their meal. Interesting to watch.
