We finally got to spend a "Lindo Mar Day" on the little beach. It is so lovely...non existent when the tide is in and cozy when it is out. Did some reading, some snorkeling and some swimming.
The fisherman who comes in daily in his kayak with lobster to sell brought a huge dorado today. He must be a skilled fisherman to be able to reel that fish in his little kayak. He sold it to La Playita restaurant at Lindo Mar, so I imagine we will be eating some of it. The cutest thing is the fisherman's best friend Mr. Pelican. He comes whenever the fisherman is on the beach cleaning his fish, loving the leftovers.
In the late afternoon we headed to Old Town to sample some well remembered daiquiris at Daiquiri Dicks on the beach. We ran into our favorite mariachis, Veracruz. We walked down the boardwalk to Si Señor for a sunset viewing and some guacamole. Ruth found owners for the last eight Beanie Babies. She came down with 76, so it took some doing giving them all away.
Embarcadero is a new restaurant just up from the pier and we gave it a try. Very good food! The owners have plans to double the size, as they own the small storefront next door, as well. There are plans to close Rodriquez Street and make it a pedestrian zone, which will be a nice little area leading to the pier and the beach. We hope they do well.
