Whales of Magdalena Bay

  Well I finally got to see the
whales.  I had wanted to go
for the past two seasons but
just couldn't get it organized.
It certainly helps to have ones'
own car.  I decided to go and
my neighbor Mary on Jade
Dragon was available to go
with me so I didn't have to go
Birds in the Mangroves where the baby whales are borne.
alone. We
headed north to
San Carlos. It
was about a 3-4 hour drive.
Got in, found the Hotel Brennan
and met out guide for the next
morning.  Enrique Jr. said he
wanted to leave the hotel
by 7 am. Mary and I settled in
and went to find dinner.
   The next morning

It is almost as good as duct tape!
This was a plugged in broken off light bulb in our hotel room!
I love Mexico!


Pretty sure they meant WATCHING not WASHING!
Make your own "bloody mary" at this place!

 On our way out of town we found
a great little hotel and restaurant.
We stopped for late breakfast
and a "bloody mary" and found the
best food!!! We also liked the
small casitas where we could stay
the next time for the same amount and
they had a beautiful view and the
sounds of water!!

  Good bye Hotel Brennan, San Carlos and the whales! Until next time....
