 Ellen ordered a LARGE cappucino! |
 Barbara demonstrating her yard alterations back home |
 Driving north on "Highway 1" |
 A visit to Todos Santos |
 Bougainvillia abounds |
 Such intense colors |
 The famous Hotel!! |
 The famous Hotel's bar |
 It's rather whimsical inside |
 Ellen's idea for an artsy photo |
 More views of the bar |
 Did the Eagles sit right here? |
 Beautiful outdoor courtyard |
 With a nice fountain |
 And mariachis on top of the roof |
 Church in Todos Santos |
 The girls in Todos Santos |
 Another artsy photo |
 Church in a tiny town (Triomph) on the drive home |
 Hanging fruit (which was really delicious!) |
 Accidentally got into a goat farm |
 They were so cute! |
 Got Milk? |
 Boiling water to use on our hike |
 Cooling down said water, to put in plastic bottles |
 Road Runner! (he'd actually RUN across the ROAD!) |
 Cows along our road |
 A sweet baby |
 More cows |
 Driving to "Table Mountain" for a hike |
 One of the intrepid sandy road drivers |
 WHERE is the trail?!?! |
 Barbara taking off cross country, sans trail |
 Ellen is brave too |
 Cyn likes the rocks |
 Well, now where do we go?! |
 Looking back at our little car |
 LOTS of cacti along the way |
 Had to back-track for a lot of it |
 Artsy again |
 On top of "End Table" mountain (we wanted SOME sense of accomplishment, so we named it ourselves) |
 Found a cool cave |
 yeah for the rocks |
 Flagstone everywhere |
 A few girls on End Table Mountain |
 Some rocks were red! |
 Finally, we found the trail! |
 Salivating vultures overhead |
 Circling the potential dinner (us) |
 Along the actual trail |
 Rugged country |
 We called this "Side Table Mountain" |
 These look like marula trees to me |
 Barb and Ellen take a rest on the steep hill |
 Cacti and rocks |
 A view back down the hill |
 We round a cairn marking the trail! |
 FINALLY: the view from the top of Table Mountain |
 The Sea of Cortez from the top |
 Looking northeast back towards our house |
 Girls on top! |
 Girls and sea |
 YEAH!! |
 Mighty deep crack in the rocks |
 We built our own cairn |
 Found some pretty interesting ones along the trail |
 Clever cairn |
 Clever cairn 2 |
 Clever cairn 3 |
 Looking back |
 oops, ended up IN another farm! |
 Guess we took the WRONG trail |
 This is just before the barking dogs came |
 Happily leaving the farm without being eaten by dogs or bulls |
 Interesting large cactus |
 Cows on the drive home |
 Majestic faces |
 Cute babies! |
 Hello |
 Barbara really liked this cactus |
 Back to our rental house |
 Quite windy! |
