The last time I was in San Quintin, I was walking on the beach by myself taking a few photos. As I looked over I noticed this family and waving me over to join them.
As soon as I approached their cars parked on the beach, they asked, “Ceviche?” while pointing to a giant bowl of the stuff that they had just made. Before I could answer, I was holding a small bowl of fresh ceviche topped with hot sauce and a few tortillas on the side while being handed a cup of Coke. I stayed and hung out with them for awhile, and this family further confirmed what I already knew about the people in Mexico. They are the friendliest people you can meet, and while they may not have a lot, they always want to share what they have.
As soon as I was done, one of the women handed me a strawberry jam sandwich gently wrapped in a paper towel. Finishing that, I asked them if I could take a photo, fully expecting to be told no as I had been in the past when asking people if I could take their photos down here before, but this family was excited. The two younger girls were using their poses that I’m sure they practiced in the mirror and after a few photos, I even got them to give a big yell. All in all a great experience with some of the friendliest people in the world.
