Final Courtyard, Behind Centro Civico In Ensenada A City In Mexico
|
The tour ended in a courtyard behind the main building. Several booths had been set up and sold wares to the
exiting tourists. The table cloth was decorated with inverted crosses.
|
A dry fountain had been decorated with potted plants. Tables were available for tourists to sit. Each table had
an umbrella to protect from the hot sun.
|
A decorative wall surrounded the courtyard. Holes allowed a free flow of air to help cool the courtyard.
|
Tilework decorated one side of an arch. The tiles depicted Mission Ignacio.
|
Additional tiles on the other side of the same arch depicted Mission San Luis Gonzaga.
|
A sign next to the bar read (in Spanish):
En este lugar del Riviera
inventó la popular bebida
"Margarita", el Bar tender
Sr. David Negrete, a petición
de la Sra. Margarita King Plant, dueña del entonces
hotel en Agosto 21 de 1948.
Which roughly translates into:
|
Lights overhead were off during the day and became mere shadows on the umbrellas overhead.
