February 2017 - El Quelite Mexico
This isn't quite a walk, more of a driving trip since we are going to a town about 20 km from Mazatlan. Willie will be our ride, chauffeured by Bill.
Our main destination is breakfast.
As we turn off the highway and head into town the road is lined with bougainvilleas.
You're not going to believe how many photos I took in the restaurant and I'm not even including the food photos. AND we've been here before!
It's name is El Meson de Los Laureanos.
Outside the restaurant the sheep are fenced in to keep them away from the chickens and roosters.
Across the street.
There are many different dining areas.
Looking straight up.
The ladies' washroom, the taps are flutes! The men's has a stone pig as a urinal.
Bill and I photobombing John's photo.
I have pictures here of the church from a previous year.
Heading back out of town.
Back in town, Bill stops at El Cerrito on the beach.
Carol takes us to see a "cool" trailer park. Talk about crazy! These trailers are permanent, they have all kinds of built in amenities under their palapas.
These are frigate birds.
Just another working day.
These restaurants get their fish right from the fishing boats outside.
Time to go, there's a tequila sunrise waiting for me by the pool.

Those bougainvilleas look familiar.
ReplyDeleteA pretty place- and a lot of critters, too!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a fun place to visit! I wild have been snapping away too. Hope the food was good!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful photos. I feel a little envious of all that gorgeous sunshine #MMBC x
ReplyDeleteSuch a cheery, colourful place, Jackie! Love that planter hen :) Enjoy your tequila and thanks for joining me again.
ReplyDeleteHaving lived so close to the Mexican border, these are familiar sights! Have to see, I miss the bougainvillea in North California. But I don't miss that little kids have to work. Here, everything says "tourists":) Thank you Jackie for sharing the joy of Mazatlan with ALL SEASONS, and wishing you a happy week!
ReplyDeleteWow! That looks like a fun place to visit! Makes me miss the sun! Great photos.
ReplyDeleteSo many lively photos and colors. I've never heard of a frigate bird, cool bird and name. Looking forward to the food photos.
ReplyDeleteColorful town......
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shots of this wonderful place!
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking part in the Travel Tuesday meme.
Oh I miss those 'colores de Mexico' - the tablecloths and murals and flowers. . .everything. And that bathroom is absolutely fabulous - love the flutes!
ReplyDeleteI love all the different coloured table clothes
