Went to Chacala Beach. Tina, Linda and I walked to the end of the beach one way. There was a lovely hotel at the end and we went up into the lobby and took some pictures of the grounds. We saw an iguana sunning himself on the steps. This is the first time I have been able to get a picture of this critter So much of the beach is beautiful sand, but the rest of it is covered with large igneous rock. I think that’s the name of the black boulders that used to be lava. People were using their boogie boards here to take advantage of the large waves. It is a very 
picturesque beach. I missed seeing them, but there are bright blue crabs that inhabit the part of the beach where the lava rock boulders are. I did see a dead puffer fish and a dead squid (or something or other) and a dead blue jellyfish.

I bought a wooden fork and spoon for my salad bowl and some cute little reindeers that will do for Christmas decorations.
For lunch we enjoyed red snapper that was smoked/baked over a wood fire. It was amazing. It had a wonderful smokey flavour and flaked beautifully – it was cooked to perfection. We had lots of beers and nachos and fish. What a great meal and a pleasant beach to spend a day walking, eating and lazing.

Sounds like a lovely way to spend a day. Mom is well. She had a lovely visit with Matt on Tuesday evening when he went in to pick up her laundry. I did not speak to Mom Wednesday, but Pam and Mom Troje were coming for lunch and she was quite excited about that. I am really enjoying your posts. A "visit" with you every morning is how I start off my day!
Hugs, Eileen
