Mexico-Ensenada

After crossing the border, we headed straight to Ensenada.  It was getting late, by the time we crossed the border and there was some crazy fog, so it was getting darker than usual.  We didn't want to be on the road at night.  We're adventurous, but not dumb or reckless.  After we found our favorite hotel, El Rey Sol, we started our walk through the wharf.  Newel was in his happy place, walking through the streets of Mexico, drinking one of his favorite Mexican sodas and heading out to a taco stand for dinner.
We really like walking around.  We checked out our favorite stand for fish tacos by El Mercado Negro, but it was closed.  So we headed out to the other place that was recommended to us last year we were visiting.  The food was great. Next time we go to Ensenada, we'll have to have a comparison of both places and see who has the best fish tacos.

We also made a quick stop at the market and checked out all of the yummy fish. Too bad we can't bring that home with us to the States.

Then, we walked back to the hotel...but first we had to get some of the corn mix of butter, cheese, chili, and other good stuff, followed by some delicious churros.

We had a great night sleep and the following morning we headed to the restaurant that is owned by the hotel.  It was the best Mexican breakfast food I've ever had. It was so good.  After that meal...the other places we ate breakfast at were a complete disappointment.

It was a beautiful day when we took off to San Felipe.   We were ready to continue our adventure.
