    The Homeport...A reason a week it is a bad idea

    We spent a beautiful week down there as well. The sea was a bit wild and finally calmed down making it perfect for kayaking. They were actually patching the potholes on the Caborca road as well which makes it less like off-roading than highway driving. There was a one hour wait around 1 pm at...
