Jerry, Skeeter, and I made a brisk walk up to "EL Faro" the lighthouse towering over the Old Harbor. This lighthouse is the second highest manned lighthouse in the world at 477 feet above water, so yes it was a hike. The first part was not bad, with the winding trail, but then half way up they started stairs, but we made it.
It was well worth the 30 minutes each way for the awesome view at the top!

Later that afternoon we dingy over to Stone Island anchorage for pizza and margaritas at Benji's restaurant, one of the most popular is their mojo de ajo pizza ( garlic shrimp pizza). The anchorage is formed by Isla de los Chivos, named after the goats that live on the island, but unfortunately we did not get to walk around, due to many margaritas.

Sounds like you guys have had some great times. Sorry about your dingy. That's terrible that it was held hostage. At least you got it back. Love the view from the top of the hill. That sounds like a great hike. Miss you guys!
