I love living close to the beach. It allows for spontaneous trips on a hot day. Yesterday was over 100 degrees, so it seemed like a perfect day. Kino is about an hour out of town. It has a very long stretch of spectacular beach. Not much else. There are a few restaurants and things, but it’s very small compared to Guaymas and San Carlos.
During the week the beach is empty. Sundays are the busiest day of the week because it’s the one day most Mexicans have off. Yesterday was pretty busy. Even so, we know of a pretty secluded place that rarely gets busy.
I was most excited about taking my new GoPro video camera as it is waterproof to 60 feet. It worked great and I have some fun videos of the dogs playing in the water. Tila has never been a big fan, so I forced her to swim a bit as she needs the exercise.
As the sun was going down, we noticed large schools of fish (they looked like large sardines) washing up on shore. Once on shore, they would squirm like snakes back into the water. The sea birds were out in full force for what I assume was an easy meal. The dogs also joined in on the fun. I have a video of Tila catching one and eating it. And true to tradition, she then vomited it up moments later. Not sure why. I had assumed a small fish would have been healthy.
The drive home was pretty slow due to traffic. We may return on Wednesday.
