Relaxing in La Barra

"La Barra" is the village of La Barra de Colotopec. It's located about 7 kms (4 miles) SE of Puerto Escondido. It's mostly local Mexicans living a very basic lifestyle, with the odd gringo passing through on his way to surf at the beach ten minutes away.

It's a pretty laid back place!

Yesterday morning, we were told that we were walking down to Alfredo's mother's for breakfast. Never sure what we're going to eating, but they keep us very well fed! Maybe I'll gain a couple of pounds while we're here!

Breakfast!

The puppies are having breakfast too.

We're going to do some shopping today so that we can get some more fruits and veggies. And beer! Haven't had a beer since we got here! That's not right.

We took Nataly (age 6) for a walk with us down to the lagoon and the beach.

Going to have to give you a "part 2" later today. I'm using the ridiculously slow internet from the school here, and we're going into town to fill up our cell stick internet!

    1. We you are in Mexico and eating with the locals, you can never be too sure what you are going to have for breakfast. This family never has cereal for breakfast!

    1. And it was a tasty one. The fish are caught right out of the river or ocean here in the Barra.

    1. Good for you, Peter! It is funny how people end up having certain concepts and don't want to sway from them. We enjoyed our breakfast.
