Dates at San Ignacio

We had a challenging drive to San Ignacio only because about 4 miles of the road was being repaired and we had to drive on the old Baja off road. We got very dusty. After that we breezed into a wonderful oasis called San Ignacio. Had lunch there and learned about how the Franciscan monks spread date seeds from the town to the coast ( about 30 miles ). The palms were beautiful. The dates were drying at the restaurant. The owner talked with us about his orchards and his town. Best stop of the trip so far............
