A day to enjoy the beach!  A little chilly with the breezes off of the Pacific, but a great day at the beach.  We noticed that the day here started off sunny and then around 9:00 a misty fog blew in and stayed until 11:00.  Just when you think the day is going to be cloudy, the mist blows out and the day is once again sunny and bright.  We love our beach campsite at El Pabellon!  

Bill began the day at 8:30 by meeting a few members of the group to go to an elementary school about a mile from the campground.  One of the members of the group had a computer they no longer needed and we heard the school could use it.  Bill, the computer engineer, went along to set it up and get it working.  They took along some school supplies they had also saved for the school.  The school had 3 classrooms with grades 1 and 2 in one room, grades 3 and 4 in another room, and grades 5 and 6 in the last classroom.   School is compulsory through sixth grade in Mexico.  They had a little kindergarten/preschool in a separate building.

When Bill and the group returned we all drove into San Quintin to a restaurant recommended by those who had been there before.  We were told they served great cucarachas which is Spanish for roaches.  We knew that was really ham and cheese quesadillas.  The quesadillas were delicious and the chips and salsa very spicy.  We enjoyed great food and company.  On the way back home we noticed how they used sticks for fences around their homes and yards.  

We barely got home before it was time for Happy Hour.  During Happy Hour Bill was presented with a Mexican Connection 8 volunteer patch for his service to the school and a picture drawn by the children.  

Our friends Bob and Sharon invited us to their RV for dinner.  Bob grilled salmon he caught in Alaska and Sharon made a great Caesar salad.  Wine and margaritas were added to the meal…delicious!!  The evening passed too quickly and we had to wish them a very sad farewell.  Tomorrow they are headed north to San Felipe and we are heading further south in Baja.  I am sure we will meet up with them again somewhere, sometime.
