So we're slowly getting over our jet lag! Body clocks are still a few hours out. Ensenada is a really lovely place to be. It's generally always warm, the people are great and the food is awesome.

Food of the day is most definitely fish tacos (tacos pascada) from a little place in the middle of town. They are amazing - like battered fish, cabbage, salsa and sauce in a small tortilla. So so so tasty!!! Also a rice milk/nutmeggy drink called horchata. Very nice. Like a non-guinessy guiness punch. Ruth has also fallen in love 'Chips Ahoy' cookies!

To our great excitement when we got back from taco eating a swarm of bees had decided to decend on the courtyard of the base. I'm told this is not a regular occurance. After a few failed attempts to smoke the bees out the fire brigade (bombero) were called and happily destroyed the bees with two large buckets of soapy water!

Both of us have realized quite how rubbish our spanish is - but we did manage to buy some gummy bears and mango on the beach- all by ourselves! Needless to say we feel thoroughly stupid when trying to speak it. It may be made slightly harder for Ruth as she looks Mexican, so people are alraedy starting conversations with her in spanish.

Blog soon, much love

Tim, Ruth and Zeke
