We rented the RV park owner’s extra car for the day and went to run errands in La Crucecitas; a town about 45 minutes away from Bahia del San Agustin. Since we had not done much sight-seeing we decided, first, to take a drive down the coast (well, here the coast runs west to east…
Tracks on the beach: Michoacan, Mexico
Click on images to display full size slide show. The beach here is covered in turtle tracks! The last 2 images are of sandcrab tracks. I think that the turtle tracks are from green turtles…they call the subspecies here “black” turtles. The eggs will hatch in 60 days so we won’t be here to see…
