Sunday we were supposed to sell at the Sayulita Street Market but because of such great response on Etsy I am almost out of product and scrambling this week to make more. We decided instead to take a day trip to Yelapa - a boat access only beach about a 30 minute ride from Boca de Tomatlan. We got there around 1pm, the sun was shining fueling our visions of a relaxing day on the beach in the midst of new surroundings. We boarded the water taxi and proceeded to take the 30 minute ride out to Yelapa as if we were riding a roller coaster at 6 Flags. The waves were huge and our boat soared over each new swell before it slammed into the water below. Luckily everyone on the boat was comfortable at sea and so we had a blast. As we made our way to the shore we noticed a thick layer of grey cloud converging above the mountains and the water began to turn choppy making it difficult maneuver in such a small boat. Soon our driver was informing us that because of the weather no other water taxi's would be coming today and so we had to turn around and head right back without even making it to shore.
Our way back was less eventful and without the sun pretty darn cold. We ended up eating lunch on the beach once we returned - drenched, freezing and a little confused that we weren't living the life in Yelapa. At least we met a little friend while eating - she sat by our table all lunch but refused any food we offered her....
