as always, the full gallery is at the bottom, so skip there if you don’t care about the words
Last night, I began a new assignment that highlights one of the top 10 dog friendliest hotels in the world (a ranking system I didn't know existed). While none of this mornings photos showcase the countless dogs roaming around, they do showcase the property which is aptly named Hotel Oasis.
This morning, I took my coffee black and in total silence as dogs roamed the beach. Additionally, I snapped these image of the property as the sun rose, then did a little bit of journaling. The hotel is tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Loreto, yet a short walk to the malecon, which is filled with stores, restaurants, bars, and at the moment an extension of the Carnival ceremonies.
Tonight, I get to learn about the importance of Chocolate Clams to the area and document them getting "cooked the traditional way."
Thank you Baja Sur Tourism Board and Hotel Oasis for trusting me with this :-)
What I Brought On Today’s Photo Walk:
Peak Design Lite strap (I was lucky enough to get the camo version from the Sitka collab that sold out in less than 24 hours and feel cool about that)
