Feliz Dia Del Amor

This is the view we had over dinner the night before Valentines Day. We went out the night before to avoid the crowds and our cunning plan was a complete success.


Some people (the two people that actually follow this blog) have been wondering where we've been? Here is what we've been up to.

The Mexico-USA border fence. This is the old fence at Tecate. In Tijuana there is also the new fence. Both have an excellent view of the United States and la migra on the other side. We have been driving to San Diego to buy more parts pretty much every weekend.

The United States seen from the other side.

While waiting for three hours to get back to the States you can buy everything from tiny guitars to bobble head chihuahuas. Oh, and fresh churros! Yum!



We had a frame made for the solar panels and are now producing our own electricity!
Lo and behold the stand up paddle board fit right under the solar panels! Almost like we planned it!
Gena tried to teach me how to cook real mexican food!

Celebrations






Some days ago Mike had yet another birthday. We hadn't really been out to a fancy dinner since leaving Portland and were happy to have an excuse to dine in style. Punta Morro Resort, just outside of town, has a fabulous restaurant over the ocean. When the seas are big, waves splash onto the windows just beyond the tables. Since the sun has been setting around 5pm here, we arrived after sunset and instead were treated to the moon setting into the pacific ocean.
