January 27, 2020 The Town of Mulege

Day 4 El Requeson South of Mulege BCS Mexico

A finch singing on our ladder…good morning!

Today we headed to the town of Mulege (moo-lah-hay) to explore, gather supplies, have some lunch and use WiFi.

This town sits at the mouth of the Rio Santa Rosalia. Date palms line the riverside. We entered the historic part of the town and parked on a side street not far from the square. We had some cell service and so we checked messages and tried to work on the blog…but internet speed was just too slow. We walked into town and had a good omelet especial at Doney Mely’s.

We stopped in the little shops along the street looking for postcards for the boys…but without success. Main Street.

A primary school.

A Mexican dog…they are everywhere…big ones, little ones, noisy ones…but not one has bothered us as we walked by. No collars of course!

We saw a small mini mercado and walked through but did not find any groceries there. We drove to Saul’s and got some milk, strawberries, and yogurt.

Such a sweet little girl…her mom granted permiso for a picture.

Cockfighting event last week.

There was free WiFi back in the restaurant so we returned with the laptop and tried to load pictures but it was much slower than we are accustomed to. We will try again in Loreto.

Earlier in the day a fish vendor brought us fresh sea bass. We grilled it in a lemon butter garlic sauce and prepared elote as well. We ate our dinner again under the palapa soaking up the ambiance of this place and remembering just how blessed we are. We ended our evening with the stars.
