We opted to get fuel and a good washing for the car before going back to the boat. There was a considerable wait for the car wash so we decided to go across the street for something to eat at Super Burro. This was our first time at this establishment although there are a number of them around town. We sat on stools at an outside counter; I had two small quesadillas (no meat, please) and Larry had the super burro, an embarassingly ginormous burrito with beans and steak cubes. There must have been at least a pound of meat on that burrito and it was, I swear, a foot and a half long. Larry called it delicious and said it was probably so good because the burro was free range. He also reminded me that he only had one burrito whereas I had eaten two quesadillas.
One of the things I found annoying about cruisers tales, on DVD or in book or internet form, was the constant reference to food. "Don't they ever think about anything else?", I'd ask Larry. "When we move on the the boat," I assured him,"food just won't be all that important to me." Ha! Maybe it's the air, maybe it's the delicious Mexican food but whatever it is I have become a food talker, too.
Chilaquilles, potatoes, frijoles, fresh o.j. coffee and of course, tortillas. |
I don't know if this makes us more a part of the cruising community or not, but it is indeed a way of life for us now, too.
