February 21 & 22

Yesterday we returned to Steffany's to see Stan & Bev and new arrivals Murray & Joan who had flown in the day before.  It was a great day to be swimming in the ocean and they were enjoying it. We had a good visit and Cam and I went home to spend the afternoon on our deck watching the century plant grow.

This morning we went to the Rincon Tianguis (market) as did Murray, Stan, Bev & Joan.

In the afternoon we picked up Murray & Joan and headed for El Monteon to visit the sandal lady.  She was there but alas the sandals did not fit us or the footprints we had from friends.  She said she may have more in two weeks so we will try again.  We drove to both El Monteon beaches as well as a bit of a tour through some agricultural lands of bananas, sugar cane, corn, cucumbers, cattle and what we believe to have been millet.
