mainland folks start the migration back

Since we spent their entire week in the islands which is a national park, we had zero opportunity to shop for everyone back in Idaho...but not to worry, we made up for the week in one marathon day! We practiced our bargaining skills and walked away with lots of treasures...not to mention some ice cream.


In La Paz, the polka-dotted tree is our source for ice cream. No need to try anything else.


The partially finished cathedral in town. Doesn't stop the services!


One of our discoveries down here has been limonada - ice water, lots of fresh limone juice and some sugar. Add rum and it can get dangerous.

We opted not to tempt our bribe fate again by renting a car and instead dropped the girls off at the bus station. We spent the rest of our time in La Paz catching up on more much needed ice cream and hanging out with the long lost s/v Sapphire, back from the mainland.
