OS to Huatulco




Our flight was short this trip and ended up back in Hautulco around 2:30pm. Arriving in Hautulco airport with the sun shining, and walking into the open air palapa roofs made us feel like we were deplaning into Hawaii. We were more than excited to be back in Mexico! Our plan for today was to book one night in Hautulco where we would stay in a hotel where the Sonoma couple had recommended to us last week, and hit the beach one last time before heading north. We checked into the hotel Delphinus after some active research of looking around to make sure there weren't any cheaper, better options, carried our last bit of tequila we had left over from our last trip with us, bought some juice in a bag to add the tequila in, and found a spot on the beach for the next few hours. We got exactly what we wanted. 

Hautulco is made up of many small pockets of paradise along the coast. Some of these pockets you can get to by car, but many you need to take a boat to get to. These secluded beaches are supposed to be some of the most beautiful on the coast. Though, we never got to see beyond our hotel zone since we didn't have a boat or much time.

 Hotel Delphinus. Good value at 38 bucks.

 Eric observes that my bikini bottom is the same color as the my strawberry drink. The best thing to ingest into our bodies? Probably not.
 The beach was small but the water was nice and the sand was lovely. Not really so much sand but tiny little rocks. No sticking!
 Eric takes a nap after chugging his tequila/lime based beverage in a bag. Why is he not on the towel? I don't know why.

After welcoming ourselves back to Mexico with some beach time, we drove the bike into town to find some food. We decided on a place Tripadvisor recommended for good seafood at a cheap price. We ate, were slightly disappointed as the plates were seemingly tasteless, and then hit the Oxxo station to refill our booze. We saw a band setting up for a show on the beach before we left and we wanted to be able to catch the second half of the show after dinner. This is how we spend the rest of our evening. Getting drunk on the beach!



 We spend the rest of the night with a bottle of Kraken & Coke, watching an 80's style blues band, talking about things we've postponed for far too long, and staying up way past bed time. Our first night back in Mexico was a good night.
