A Trip To Italy

Three lovely young women all the way from Bologna, Italy have settled in La Paz and opened a restaurant called Dalle Regazza

While the food was very Italian, the wine well priced and delicious, the ambiance won the prize! When we arrived, we were greeted at the door and led to an outdoor sitting area which had chairs and coffee table on a carpet, right on the sand! Here we sat enjoying our wine and appetizers while listening to the water and sea birds behind us. After a couple bottles of wine (there were six of us, afterall) we were told that when we were ready and not until then to come in the house where our table awaited us and we would be served dinner.

Overall a little pricey for Mexico but a very pleasant experience.

We're Expecting!

This hummingbird, we've been told it's an Anna, decided to put her nest on our awning! Our heat sensor has registered up to 112 degrees under that blue tarp so we are not sure if they won't cook!

The eggs are the size of a pea!

You can see where Steve taped the hole in her nest so the eggs wouldn't roll out.

Chico Zapote

A most extraordinary fruit! Kinda ugly to look at but, as you can see below, quite pretty inside. The flavor is unlike anything we have had before and very sweet. Apparently the Chico Zapote has a very short season and must be eaten when very ripe otherwise it is very astringent with alot of tannins and quite nasty!

Breakfast anyone?
