Quimixto - Mexico

We decided to take a day trip to a village named Quimixto, further North. We had to get onto a boat in the morning, returning by boat at supper time.

My big dog Anna doesn’t like boats, so I had a bit of a struggle getting her into the boat in the morning, but once we were settled, the trip was fine! Happy to leap off the boat, we had a great time exploring the village before tourists began arriving later in the day.

Anna and Mr. Meaty loved sniffing around the beach, playing in the water, exploring the village, and then cooling off by laying in the sand under a big tree.

The end of our adventure was a bit more adventure than I had bargained for. When the boat pulled up at the dock, I went to push Anna onto the boat but she refused. Then, as the boat pulled back on a wave, she thought it was leaving without us and decided to jump into the ocean and swim!! I was horrified, because the dock was too high for her to get back up, and the rocks at the edge were slippery and tall. There was a serious risk she may drown or get squished between the boat and the dock as the waves carried it around.

Luckily, I managed to coax her out of the water and onto the rocks, and when we tried again, I was able to get her to jump onto the boat!

Enjoy the photos!
