and took a paddle for a couple of hours. The water was amazingly warm and flat. The fish were abundant below us, and the pelicans were having a feast for breakfast all around us…it was quite a sight. We paddled down the beach for about 100 yards and then out and around the rock hills that come to the deep water. All along the rocks, the fishermen were tossing out their lines for the days catch, some already lucky and others still hanging tough. We paddled from one protrusion of rocks to another and onto another until we had come to a small development of the only large homes we have seen in Kino Bay. One smaller home that was already finished and right down on the beach was absolutely beautiful, and then there were the 3 others that sat higher on the hillside that were going to be huge when finished…pretty nice, but how the hell do you get to them??? The only paved road is the one that comes into Bahia Kino from Hermosillo and then takes a right for about 6 miles and then comes to an end. The rest of the roads are heavily rutted dirt and a tough ride it is. We’ve met up with a couple (Sol and Carol) from Steamboat Springs, Colorado. They arrived the day before we did and we happened to find a location to park right in front of their 5th wheel. For the last couple of evenings, we’ve gotten together at the edge of the beach to watch the sun go down. This morning Carol asked us if we would like to explore Old Bahia Kino and try to get out to the land spit that connects the mainland to one of the island. Well we found the road (dirt and heavily rutted), but it only took us about 1/3rd of the way to the island. From there it was walking only if you wanted to continue. We did find a small area were the fishermen leave and come back from the bay. Tonight we enjoyed another sunset and dinner at Jorge’s…just another day in PARADISE !!!
