Canoa- January 14/19

I am behind in updates and will post a few pics taken since last Saturday...........

 Taken early morning last Sunday...looking back at Sundown from the beach.

 A view looking towards San Vicente approximately 15k away

 I have been here 2 weeks and this is the 3rd Turtle I have come upon....deceased...likely drowned in a fisherman's net and cast overboard......sad ....each has been about 3 feet in diameter.

 Looking towards Canoa 2 k away...taken fro the same spot as the one in the other direction.

In many of my pictures you see clouds....I am thank full for them as it is blazing hot when the sun is out.....so hot that you cannot walk barefoot on the sand. I am told that Canoa only gets about 100 days of Full Sun but just 17 k away they get many more......the sun does appear most days if only for a few hours ........

 Waiting for a bus to take me into San Vicente....cost to go 15k only $0.50....

 San Vincente beach

 Looking across the Bay at Bahia 

 Random graffiti in town

 Another of Bahia

 Local taxi service

 Preparing dinner de camarone

 Served on a bed of rice.......

 This is Luis...standing inside the home he is building for his family.....you will notice that the support beams are concrete...this is typical construction with all the supports reinforced with steel rod.

Luis took me to the local San Vincente market today where I purchased 2 pounds of Camarone or 20 for $ 10.00....see the size of them......I am hoping that Luis, my Spanish Instructor doesn't have a nervous breakdown as my progress is no muy bueno......he has a very difficult student possibly with attention deficit disorder and a touch of dementia.......not a good combination.
