This fabulous sunset over the windmills set the mood for the festivities in town for Mother's Day. In San Juanico they celebrate Mother's Day on the 10th of May.
In town the Salon was hopping with the festivities. People come from all the surrounding areas to celebrate.
A raffle being held, not sure for what but everyone seemed to be having a great time.
Visitors to the cafe from the sailboats moored in the bay.
The Sea Turtle Conservation Network of the Californias, is a grassroots network of individuals, communities, organizations and institution from around the world dedicated to the conservation and protection of sea turtles in Northwest Mexico. www.grupototuguero.org
We served breakfast to a group of conservationists from The Grupo Tortuguero, A Sea Turtle Revolution. San Juanico is one of the Loggerhead Conservation Communities. Loggerhead turtles migrate from Japan to feed within coastal fishing grounds off the Baja California Peninsula. The Grupo Tortuguero's work in partnership with fishermen and their families has shown that local fisheries are a leading source of loggerhead mortality in the Pacific and that the future of these turtles is largely in the hands of small-scale fishers in Mahia Magdalena, Isla San Lazaro, Puerto Lopes Mateos, Santa rosa, Santo Domingo, La Poza Grands, Las Barrancas, Punta Abreojos and San Juanico.
Judy and Clare Juhl, dear friends of John & Becky, visited from Mulege. Judy is collecting wall art and shows her latest find. They were very impressed with San Juanico and the miles and miles of beautiful beaches that surround Bahia San Juanico.
