a mexican beach vacation

we had a plan.

it was detailed

and involved.

and mildly researched.

and it fell apart. 

we were going to go on a 10 day road trip

from arizona to san francisco and back, 

hitting up cool places like

death valley

yosemite

bishop

big sur

lake tahoe

los angeles

but three days before we were about to leave

we watched the weather -- 

"predicted:

over the next week

three huge storms are going to converge

on the sierra nevada mountains.

driving will be extremely dangerous

and is not advised."

awesome.

what a disaster.

so we rolled with the punches;

and decided to go to the beach instead.

such a good decision. 

al pastor tacos.

the best food in the world.

we ate them 5 of the 7 nights we were there.

fatties.

las islas marietas:

national wildlife and bird refuge

 

we saw dolphins and whales.

 

 and of course, 

my trips to the beach

are never complete without

my dead series.

   

and skulls.

 

if you ever need a place to stay in sayulita

or want to try surfing or paddle boarding

surf n roll is what's up.
