 We got up and Matt wanted to go walk around the property early. So we did! It was quiet and not many people up at this time. 

We decided to eat breakfast early, kind of unusual for us. I had muesli which was delicious. Matt had another Mexican breakfast and half my muesli since I couldn't eat it all. 

After breakfast, we decided to walk along the beach. We walked for over a mile in the sand, enjoying the beautiful day and the lovely water. 

After our beach walk, we ate chips and guacamole at the hotel. The chips and guac in Mexico are probably my favorite foods here. They never disappoint. 

After lunch we played a little Pickleball, trying to brush up a bit for the tournament. The tournament ended up being a lot of fun but we played pretty horrible. Out of eight teams, we came in sixth, so we weren't the worst. We should have done a lot better but we still had fun. 

After the tournament, we decided to walk back to the place we had eaten breakfast in town. When we got there, it was party central and it was too much for us. We walked the rest of the way into town and ended up sharing a Taco Salad. We tried to come back through the shopping center but couldn't find our way out! Back out the way we came, we headed home.

The nights continue to be spectacular with a full moon and lighted boats in the harbor. Very idyllic.

 Today, we are scheduled for a hike in the Sierra de la Laguna. This is a hike Avi recommended. Expensive at $160 per person but we went for it. The hike didn't start until 2 pm so we had some time. I went and bought a coffee at Starbucks. We still hadn't figured out our error on the conversion rate and I thought I paid $25 for the worst cup of coffee ever. I finally googled the number of pesos I spent on the coffee and realized our error. The real price was $6.70. Still high but what you would expect.  After we were up and showered, we headed towards town and found a lovely place to eat breakfast right on the water. With the gentle tropical breeze blowing and the beautiful ocean, it felt a bit like a dreamland. Matt got on his knees to take a picture of me. A table nearby thought we were so cute (again) that she took a picture of Matt on his knees. I laughed. Told him I could really throw the kids off if I sent them that picture. Not sure what I would do if Matt asked me to m...

We had coffee in our room today after buying what we needed at Walmart. Much better than coffee we've had in any restaurant. And the real cream reminded me of the cream in EskDale. Thick like pudding. Pretty darn good.  We had a reservation to play Pickleball this morning. Headed down to play and ended up playing with two women who were very good - Janice and Kathy. I felt like I was playing absolutely awful but we still had fun.  After Pickleball we headed into town for a hike to Lovers Beach. We stopped at a little taco place by the Marina and had tacos and chips with guacamole. The guacamole here is so wonderful. And they give you so much! An order of chips and guacamole is at least two full avocados with the best pico de gallo in the world. Stomachs full, we started our trek to Grand Selmar Resort. Arriving there, we had to request entrance to the beach. They asked us to wait a few minutes and then escorted us through a locked gate and to the beach. What a beautiful place....
