Another Day in Paradise

It's been getting a bit cool at night & very humid some evenings.
We often have a pretty layer of fog over the Sea of Cortez. The Island of Tiburon ( Shark Island) is behind the fog. It's about 3 miles offshore.








Jan took a day trip to San Carlos, about 70 miles south of Kino yesterday. She went with 6 others from the park. I didn't feel like spending 5 hours (2.5 hrs each way) as they were coming back the same day. They took a nature cruise in the morning and saw lots of birds and a pod of dolphins swam along with their boat for a while.











After lunch, they went to a pearl farm in Guaymas, just across the bay from San Carlos. They grow black pearls at the farm, which if course is in the bay with oysters.


Then they had dinner at Jorge's Restaurant in New Kino.





Just another sunset.
