Fishing ViIlage of Puerto Angel

Today on the way to the beach we stopped in Puerto Angel to explore a little bit. Puerto Angel is still a very traditional Mexican fishing village.

Their livelihood is still fishing, and has nothing to do with the tourists around this area, good thing, there are very few tourists in PA. We were very conspicuous in town, Adrian is basically twice as tall as most women and the men don't come to his shoulder!

We were in town around 10:30 and many of the boats were unloading their catch.

The town also has a Couple of churches, they are sitting one on top of the other but we couldn't find our way up to the top one... The one on the bottom is very modest.

We stopped at a little store, to look for the enchilada candies I like here, they didn't have any, but the man behind the counter understood and spoke poquito english. He recommended a couple other chile doulce/candies. He then threw in a couple of caramels which were delicious! We'll go back for more before we leave.

Once back on the road we headed down to the beach again, we missed the sun on our road trip yesterday, se we had to make up for it today. There are fishermen on the Mazunte beach as well, this guy started yelling for people to help him push his boat on shore yesterday, so tourists and locals worked together to push it up on beach.

For supper we headed to one of the most recommended restaurants on Zipolite, called El Aquemista. Definitely a more pricy option, less food too, but very delicious. I had the camarones/shrimp with coconut cream curry, Adrian had the camarones/Shrimp el Diablo.

 Adrian had a Margarita, which came blended instead of al la Roca/on the rocks. I had a shot glass of Tequila, it was at least 2 oz! It was a good quality one and I sip it with lime and salt.

Hasta Luego!
