Bucerias
Today we took a short cab ride up the coast to the town of Bucerias. I think it gave the kids a better look at Mexico (a little less touristy). We spent lots of money at the open air shops and then had a wonderful lunch at Mariscos El Gordo. We were a little worried about eating at an authentic restaurant but we were glad we did. The food was wonderful. We ate on the beach while being approached every 2 minutes by people trying to sell trinkets. I could not resist the cute little kids selling bracelets. I bought 5 but would have bought more had Ryan let me :) After lunch we decided to head back to our resort on foot. Along the beach it was only about 1.5 miles. Most of the beach was littered with trash and pretty nasty. Simon barely made it, he was tired! The kids finally got to enjoy a drink at the swim up bar in the pool. The last highlight was getting to watch a beach soccer game. Every night the cooks and bartenders have a game of soccer or volleyball on the beach after work. They were all very talented soccer players and Ryan is hoping to sneak into there volleyball game tomorrow night. Tomorow we are off to find the dolphins. Wish us luck!
