Last Sunday, we took on the beach at Rattlesnake. It was a nice hike with a beautiful snaking valley. We did another serious hike up and over a mountain, then battled the snaking valley and out to an oasis where there were pretty palms growing. We relaxed near the water on some beautiful rocks and enjoyed a nice long break. Near the water, we discovered old stone houses that were abandoned, at least we thought they were abandoned. We discovered that 4 fishermen were living in one of the stone spaces. You will see the picture of the fish. These are being dried to be sold. The fisherman take them into town every now and then and sell them in the market. Then we headed back; the hike up through the moutain pass was pretty rough and when we got to the top, the wind was so fierce that we could barely stand up. You'll see a picture of my friend Pedro battling the wind!
The hike was about 6 hours long, so I was really worn out afterward. But, since we start at 6 am, that means we are always home in time for a good lunch and a long nap!
