Day 28

My last day, sob.  I have to catch a taxi at 2:00 to head home.  I went for an early morning walk along the beach, it is so quiet on the beach in the early morning before all the activities start up.  The only activity on the beach was this exercise group, some were even running stairs.

 After the beach walk I headed home to have breakfast and pack up, sob.  Then I checked out of my room, the cleaning staff gets off at 1:00 on Saturdays so I got out of my room early so they could get it ready for the next people checking into MY room!  Sob again.
After I deposited my luggage in one of the common areas I headed out to walk along the malecon for one last time, along the malecon are many bronze statues, there is a free walking tour one morning a week that a volunteer does to talk about the statues and the artist, we need to do this next trip.  There are not very many sand sculptures at this time, there usually are more around the holidays, so probably between now and Easter they will start building more. If you take a picture of the sculptures or of any of the street performers a trip is expected and should be given, this is how the artist makes their money, they do have to get a permit. Then I had my last lunch at Cafe de Olla and headed back for a last dip in the pool, sob, collected my luggage, hugged our lovely host Denise goodbye, sob.
You all know I will be back!!!!!!!!!
