John was scheduled to go fishing today with 12 other people but the trip was cancelled due to high winds, high waves, cold air and clouds. To say the least, this day is probably the worst weather we have seen this whole trip.
So instead of fishing we rode bikes and walked today. We rode our bikes to the convenience store called 8/12 (like a 7/11) that has pretty fast wi-fi. That involved drinking lots of coffee and 2 free donuts. Then to the fruit market before going back to the RV. We then walked to the Malecon for lunch at a nice seafood restaurant. Our waiter thought we were newly weds or lovers! He brought us candy, complimentary tostadas and guacamole. Then on top of that we shared a fish platter with a variety of preparations of seafood. I had to get a to-go box.
The walk back was good for the full tummies. We then rode our bikes to get eggs, then back to the Malecon to get some shrimp. These have to be the biggest shrimp I have ever seen. The guy we bought them from said they were almost lobster! Ha Ha! 8 shrimp weighing 1.5 pounds, and costing only $12.
Back to the RV and then on the bikes to the 8/12 so we could call the kids using Skype. That's over 8 miles on the bikes today and 3 miles of walking. I'm pooped!
