on the way to la paz, iván and i stopped by peñasco to collect his things and wrap things up for him there. i started working, saw people at CEDO, we visited favorite restaurants and places, saw friends, etc. etc. it's strangely comforting to go to a place you come from when you are going somewhere new.
en el viaje a la paz, iván y yo parábamos en peñasco para recoger y empacar sus cosas y por el a termina sus pendientes. yo empece a trabajar, vi a la gente de CEDO, visitamos nuestros restaurantes y lugares favoritos, convivimos con amigos, etc etc. en una manera rara es reconfortante a visitar a un lugar que ya has dejado cuando vayas por un nuevo lugar.
the best thing about peñasco continues to be the huge tidal swings and being there during a full moon.
lo mejor de peñasco sigue ser las mareas grandes y estar allá durante la luna llena.

we drove down to guaymas and crossed the gulf in the ferry from guaymas to santa rosalia ... an uncomfortable journey reminiscent of ferry rides in the philippines when you travel overnight and they put everyone in a room with uncomfortable seats with the air conditioning turned up too high so you "sleep" surrounded by crying/screaming children, people snoring, people drinking, watching bad dubbed movies turned up too loud. this trip was especially annoying because the military guys searched my car in guaymas then again in santa rosalia where they also took photos and fingerprinted everyone getting off the ferry. craziness. note to self: never take this ferry again. la paz - mochis was so much better last summer
manejábamos a guaymas y cruzábamos el ferry de guaymas a santa rosalia ... un viaje incomodo .... de noche, en un cuarto con sillas incomodas con el aire fuerte y se supone que duermas rodeados por niños gritando/llorando, gente roncando, gente tomando, mirando películas malas y dubbed con el volumen muy alto. este viaje estaba muy molesto porque los militares revisan su auto en guaymas y de nuevo en santa rosalia donde también tomaban fotos y huellos de los dedos de cada persona. ugh. lo de la paz - mochis es mucho mejor.

from santa rosalia it's a quick six-ish hour drive down to la paz where we have settled into a very cute older house in the downtown area of la paz close to the boardwalk and beach. we are both working and both enjoying things here so far. more to come...
