A friendly house at El Pescadero

Gillian Herbert is "the Baja lady".  Originally English, a Canadian citizen and a Baja regular of many many years.  She puts out a dvd showing people how and where to travel in Baja in an rv.  We visited her and she made us very welcome at the house where she is house sitting.  Here are some photos of the lovely house.  It is owned by Californians who come here for a few months of the year.

The house has a wonderful thatched roof on the outside wrap around verendah.  It is beutifully cool and quite waterproof.

Andrew and Gillian relaxing with Dolly and Lucy the extra friendly rottweilers.

The upstairs terrace.  The house reminded us of a Moroccan house with the strong Moorish influence evident here in Mexico also.

Note the lovely ceramic tiles on the sides of the stairs.

One of the shower recesses with the wonderful green tiling.  The downstairs shower is identical in shape with yellow tiling - quite spectacular.

It is margharita time.  Nikki and Gillian toasting each other with this wonderful refreshing drink on this marvellous terrace.  How good can life get?

Giant fig on the roadside.

Andrew handling his email correspondence at the friendly Cafelix in Todos Santos where they have wi-fi and lovely chicken or shrimp quesedillas.  Very tasty and reasonable priced especially compared to the upmarket and more pricey Hotel California restaurant just up the road.  But the HC is still worth a visit.

Our Mexican rug made from native dyed wool in Oaxaca from the mainland.   Andrew is standing outside the stylish bathrooms at the Hotel California.

We were invited to Gillian's birthday party held at the beautiful boutique Hotel Bentley.
