Witches Beach

Cort, Kyle, and I took a field trip to Witches Beach, a local spot where Mexican families come to play and eat fresh sea food.

A very sad, sick dog.


After a hot day of building sand castles in the sun, this little girl likes to cool off with a nice can of Pacifico beer.

This man wore a blow-up swan on his head the entire time we were there, despite the desperate pleas of his son to have his floatie back.

Seatbelts?

From time to time we go somewhere with the entire group, all 21 of us, and through some means of circus clown technology, we manager to squeeze every last one into a single suburban.

It looks something like this, only fuller.

Around the Inn

The last few days have been spent lazing around the Inn at Mazatlan. Which is pretty much what this guy does everyday.


I did a short babysitting stint of Samantha's twins



Out at the pool:

Ever wonder who buys those ridiculous t-shirts you see in shops along the beach?

This guy...
"It's not a beer belly, it's a fuel tank for a sex machine" ...whatever you say.

Mazatlan Aquarium

I went to the Mazatlan Aquarium a couple days ago. 70 pesos to get in, with 3 scheduled shows included. I was just in time for the sea lion show, which I have to admit, was pretty cool.

This is Bony performing a few tricks






A young Billy did some showing off too


The bird show was ok. Mediocre tricks, but at least the hostess was cute.


After, I went inside an aviary where they let you get up close and personal with all kids of different birds.





Inside the aquarium


I'm big boned!

Lunch

I saw these little critters in the wild in Thailand. This is the first time I've seen them since.

The shark show was "interesting" to say the least. Not sure if children should have been sitting in the front row.

Back to the aquariums...








Loved watching the sea horses.



I couldn't get enough of the octopuses as well.

Walking back to my hotel. This nightclub overlooking the ocean looks cool from a distance.
