I didn't get in a whole lot of beach days on this trip, but came to the conclusion that I didn't need to go to Playa Norte to enjoy the sand and water. I had a beach right in front of my home away from home where I could wade in the water, collect seaglass, listen to the crashing waves, and read a book in comfortable chairs. The weather during my trip required flexibility as far as finding a spot that wasn't too cold or windy. One day I sat at Chimbo's in front of Ixchel, the next time at Playa del Sol.
I was surprised that Playa del Sol was relatively quiet. No large daytripper boats docking on the day I visited, and no loud music from the Caribbean Queen! I'd also forgotten that Rogelio was at Playa del Sol, so it was just like old times! I spent a few sunny hours there wading in the water, reading my book, and taking in the scenery.

The couple next to me opted for a serenade with lunch.
Never seen the bar open, but the swings make a cool beach photo!
For lunch, I decided on some guacamole and chips from my favorite waiter.

Love the colorful headdress!
Sombrillas!

Next time fill one of those baskets with sunshine for the return home! Like a jar of lightening bugs?
drgeo, the sun is back! And the temps are warming. Once again, we're having our own little form of a norte dip down with wind and cooler temps. But in Phoenix, you never hear anyone wishing for the arrival of summer! At least if I'm working from home this spring, I won't totally miss the nice time of year!
Jeanne, they were just sitting there on Playa del Sol unblemished. Don't know if a kid had been there, or an adult got creative!
