Rocky Point Re-Visited

Went back to Rocky Point just two weeks after we had already been there. We took Shawn and Jane this time for their 25th wedding anniversary and Rick's birthday. The weather was gorgeous again and we enjoyed the whole place to ourselves as you can see there is no one on the beach. Which wasn't so great because the vendors had us to only sell to. I bought a nice silver ring from this nice man who picked it out for me. This man said that next year the cruise ships are going to be stopping at Rocky Point. It will be good for his business if it ever comes about. I don't know how they make a living with nobody there to sell to. We enjoyed reading and laying around by the pool and Jacuzzi.
This was the biggest shrimp I've ever seen. One shrimp would fill me up. I didn't buy any shrimp from them and they gave me a hard time just taking a picture and not buying anything. Last time we ate a ton of shrimp but didn't buy any this time. I brought down food and we always went to the local grocery store "Leys" to buy melt in your mouth french rolls, the best I've ever tasted. The papaya's were good this time but no mangoes to be found.
Here is a nice picture of a fishing boat coming into the harbor from a long nights haul. At night you look out into the bay and see the lights of the fishing boats bobbing up and down. There are usually about 6 to 7 boats floating around every night. And always the party boat with it's disco ball and party music float by around 9 p.m. I wonder if anyone is even on the boat.
This is probably my favorite picture of Rick and I down at Rocky Point. I'll have to frame this one.
A beautiful sunset down at the point of Cholla Bay. It's a little housing community basically for Americans who love to fish and they have a vacation home there. I guess the fishing is world famous.
We are eating breakfast out on our 13th story patio. The condo was fabulous. Jon helped us get it from a friend of his. This was at the Las Palomas Resort. The same resort we stayed at during Christmas only a different condo.
This is a sunglass shop on the dirt mall or "Shacks Fifth Ave". I did not buy any glasses but should have. You can buy a beautifull pair for under $10.00.
Jane and I had loads of fun shopping while the guys just sat in the car talking. I loved looking at the pottery.
A mexican shop downtown. Over priced and not so well kept up. But a cute display on the outside. We did find a great store I recommend called Mercedes. It is Jane and my favorite all time pottery shop. Great stuff and resonably priced. Didn't even feel we needed to bargain down. Jane is a great bargainer. I just love to follow her around and learn a thing or two. Rick came away with the Swine flu or something when we got home. It took him a week to feel back to normal. He was also sick a week before we left so maybe his immune system was down. But at least we all felt good while we were there. We always have so much fun with Shawn and Jane.
I think this was a hit and want to keep it a tradition along with our beloved San Felipe trips. Both Rick and Shawn speak Spanish and we have always had a great time in Mexico. It's always an adventure. This time when we crossed the border into Mexico the police had their german shepard search our truck inside and out. It was a little gross with his little crusty behind sniffing all over our seats. We were the only ones there and I think he wanted to give his dog some practise.
