Our last day in La Paz! We started things off right, with a trip to Docecuarenta. Coffee for everyone! After breakfast Clint, Kat, and Harvey packed up and headed out to check out some of the small towns between La Paz and our final destination, Los Barriles. Mom, Dad, and Remy opted for a last dip in the pool, but the water was very cold so it was truly just a dip.
Post pool we changed and headed to the car. Dad couldn't leave without a final espresso shot from Docecuarenta, and Remy tagged along to snag a biscuit for the trip.
One of Remy's favorite podcasts is a debate program called "Smash, Boom, Best" where contestants argue which of two items is superior. Topics include things like peanut butter vs. jelly, ice cream vs. French fries, and unicycles vs. pogo sticks. We didn't have cell service on the drive do we opted to make our own episode, Pokemon vs. Whales. Remy was arguing for Pokemon, and he ultimately proved victorious, as judged by his totally unbiased mother. One of the hallmarks of "Smash, Boom, Best" is that many of the rounds have a silly theme or twist. In our game we had to pen a roommate wanted ad for our subject, i.e. a whale is looking for a roommate, please expect.... Unfortunately anyone looking to be a whales roommate would have to be comfortable with the constant smell of fish and that was something the judge could not abide by.
Our house in Los Barriles is a great hangout spot, with several porches and a nice big dining table upstairs that seats six comfortabley for dinner and doubled as a great boardgame spot! After arriving we went for a long beach walk and then returned to the house on the road through town. For dinner we grabbed takeout and ate at our Airbnb. Excellent Mexican fare for the adults and steak for Remy. He will not be iron deficient, that's for sure!
