Nacapule Canyon, La Manga and El Mirador

Thursday I spent the morning cleaning house, which, believe it or not, felt refreshing.  Jim, Susan and David went hiking in Nacapule Canyon with Mary Ellen and Ken, who are from Durango and own a house here.

Afterwards, we went up to the fishing camp to the La Manga Restaurant, where we had wonderful fresh seafood-I had a torta with crab and shrimp and avocado and Jim had the fried oysters-both were terrific!  You can't get seafood as fresh as this.  The oyster beds are right outside the restaurant and the other seafood is but hours old.

On our way home, we stopped for sunset at El Mirador, chosen by National Geographic as the best ocean view in the world.

Just the right moment

What they call the "goat titty" mountains behind us



Oh, to be a bird on an evening like this
