Day Twelve

Today was a beautiful day. We had a nature cruise on the San Carlos bay and got to see lots of birds. More of the Great Blue Herons and better views of their nests, plus even some babies. Then there were the Blue Footed Boobies, same species as in the Galapagos. Lots of cormorants and brown pelicans and ..... - can you tell I am not a bird person?



After returning from the cruise I went on a horseback ride through the Sonoran Desert to a small fishing village for a wonderful shrimp lunch. I have not been on a horse for over 40 years, and the only problem I seem to have had was with my knee of all things. Lets see how I feel tomorrow.


Tonight is our final night in Mexico. We will meet for drinks at the palapa and then watch the sunset, hoping to see the green flash. Then it is back to the hotel for dinner. Tomorrow is the long bus ride back to Tucson for one more night before flying home. I believe we have some interesting stops tomorrow before we actually arrive back in Tucson. This has been a wonderful trip and I have met some great friends I hope to keep forever, some of them even other Mudders!!!


Until tomorrow.
