My hurting knees have prevented me from doing much hiking and walking, but I finally decided to scale this lighthouse hill and see how it goes - and it went pretty well, without aggravating my knee conditions.
From the top there are some nice views, although that January day was a bit hazy.
Top of Al Faro lighthouse hill: You can by some drinks there...and rest.
View towards Ice Box Hill:
View of harbor and cruise ship dock
The harbor entrance. The little rocky hill across is part of Stone Island, a recreation area for locals and toiurists, reachable on ferry boats for about a dollar. See next post.
Again the entrance:
A shrimping boat: Maz is the shrimping capital in Mexico, both for wild shrimp (this boat) and aqua-cultured - where they encountered an infection some time ago - no idea how that had developed. Fresh shrimp costs between 10 to 20 CAD/kg.
View up the harbor. Way in the back are large fish/sea food processing plants - you will smell it when driving on the highway to the airport:
And here we have a long distance shot of China, Korea, Japan and Vietnam from the light house hill:
See you up top!
