Saturday night on Bahia Concepcion

P1070130

We’ve always heard Ana’s Restaurant on Playa Santispac is “the place to be” on a Saturday night, but we’ve previously avoided the crowds and loud volume. Doug, Jill, Debbie and Greg convinced us we had to give it a try, so last night we did.  We were joined by John and Elizabeth, two Aussies from Brisbane who are traveling the world (literally) in their modern-day Unamog (see photo above, Google it if you’ve never heard of such a thing), which they shipped here from Asia and are now headed to Alaska.

We arrived at Ana’s (photo above) and the music  began at 6:00 with a great DJ who looked to be well into his 70s. We were told to order dinner soon because they’d run out of food long before the night was over. We had tasty ribs (Bob) and chilles rellenos (Cathryn), and excellent margaritas. Despite not having the usually required 3 scotch rocks, Bob accepted  Cathryn’s  invitation every time she requested a dance all night long, which was more than a dozen times! The crowd was entirely age 50-80 or so, and it was funny to be dancing with a group in which we did not feel “old”.  Despite the good music, food, dancing and fun, we still left the restaurant at 9:30 (Baja midnight, remember?) and wandered the 1/2 mile back to our campsite and tumbled into bed.
