Another Day in Paradise

 

The next morning we walked over to a nearby mall to find a bank machine for pesos.  The condo is right next to a river (dried up now in the dry season so more like a slough).  

Rob told us that last year he saw a crocodile on the beach in front of the condo.  So we thought the slough would be a place the crocs might hang out.  On our way back we stopped on the bridge to look for signs of crocodiles.


We did see some very suspicious footprints.


Heading back to the condo 

Later we were looking out from our room toward the slough and sure enough we spotted a crocodile in the water.

Our field trip today was to a bar called Café Roma to hear a band called Shadrack.  The singer was from Kentucky and the rest of the band were locals.

The filled player was late because his car broke down but eventually he showed up.

The music was country-rock with standards like Margaritaville and the devil went down to Georgia and some of his own tunes.  The place was packed.  At the end the singer gave a heartfelt speech about the friendships between Canadians, Americans and Mexicans and how he regretted the current political atmosphere.
