Celebrating Loreto, Baja California Sur with local Celebrating Loreto, Baja California Sur with local writers, editors and dignitaries thanks to the team from Loreto BCS Tourism and TMAC President Jerry Grymek.

It was lovely to meet Sebastian A. Galvan Duque C., Deputy Consul of the Consulate of Mexico in Calgary and chat about the Mexico-Canada connection while enjoying delicious small plates from Anejo Restaurant on 4th Street.

While we learned about the many natural wonders of Loreto a painting was being created, and the lucky winner who got to take it home was Randy Sharman from @theinformedtraveler. The artist @yiyoph told us that he draws inspiration from the spirits of his ancestors and he hopes to send positive energy out into the world through his art.

We certainly felt the friendly, positive spirit of Loreto all night and we can't wait to visit there again.
