2026 Went by In a Flash

 

2026 started off well.

              

Joe, my first guest ever from Canada arrived within a few days of New Year's.   We're just resting a bit after a swim at Chahue and a frisbee toss.

More swimming in the coral area of the mini beaches and then a steep climb up a trail where we passed the ruins of an old club from the early days of Huatulco. 

That is one big cactus.

We has so much fun.  We hit the waves at la Bocana, rented a scooter for a road trip, tossed a frisbee and reminisced about our younger days.

Joe was the ultimate guest, way beyond low maintenance.  He was a total asset, replenishing supplies and fixing things while I was away at work. He even repaired a broken light switch that I was afraid to touch.

Taco time after The Meeting Point.

Joe, Ulises and Fernando, my travelling companions this year for 

Aniversario de la Titulacion del Pueblo de Huatulco Caminata Tradicional 2026 .  There was some debate about whether or not to push on after reaching Piedra de Moros but here we are near the end of our journey.  We're tougher than we look.

Piedra de Moros, the halfway point of the big hike where everyone was treated royally with cafe olla, sweet bread and tamales to fortify for the rest of the journey.
