It seems hard to believe it has been two weeks since we left Presidio but when you look at the palm trees and tropical plants in Mazatlan and enjoy the 85 degree weather we have certainly come a long way in the past two weeks!Mazatlan is a growing city and so different from being up in the Copper Canyon. Here billboards are in English, most businesses have someone who speaks English, and it is obviously a city catering to the American and Canadian winter snowbirds. Construction of condominiums is everywhere, hotels line the beaches, and restaurants are in every block.
Today was a free day that was supposed to start with golf but a tournament postponed those plans until Wednesday. Instead we enjoyed the afternoon downtown with Portuguese friends from Toronto Geno and Isabel including a delightful lunch on the beach downtown.
It was also a day for laundry, haircuts, and shopping as we have pretty much been limited to buying baskets, etc the past week and a half.
Tonight was another pleasant evening enjoying shrimp and Margaritas and enjoying our group's company.
Tomorrow we tour a colonial village nearby.
