Another small oasis amid the desert. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Mulege is on the bank of a river right on the Bay of Cortez. It is lush and green right in the middle of the desert.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This wonderful smiling lady and her husband made us some yummy tacos for lunch. We always eat at the street vendors (our one rule when choosing a place to eat is that we can watch them prepare our food so we know it is fresh).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Baja is full of dogs. Some are strays looking for some attention or a morsel, and some, like this one, are well loved and fed, but roam around town at their leisure. This sweet boy belonged to the owner across the street. He had wandered over to the sunny side of the street for his afternoon siesta.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Mission Santa Rosalia sits on the hill above town. We hiked up to have a look.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The mission is usual closed, but there happened to be a young man there who showed us the inside. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
It was gorgeous inside…<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
and out.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Well worth the hike up.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
On the opposite hillside from the mission was the town prison.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
That’s the mission over yonder across the river.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
A very similar structure to the mission. Both trying to redeem souls?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
This unique prison opened its door during the day. The inmates could leave for the day to work and see family as long as they were back at a certain time for the night. Mulege, until recently, was isolated…no where for the prisoners to go.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The cells were very tiny.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A two holer.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We loved our time in Mulege, wandering the streets and visiting the sights. The small town and friendly people were just our speed. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
