Well, I am certainly grateful for days like this! I promised I wouldn’t write again until we started out in the GWB on our trip North…. but hey – I’m allowed to change my mind. Last night we spent a delightful afternoon/evening with the OTHER Talbott’s ( n/b the two t’s) from Tororontto… on board …
We had just deposited Tom and Phyllis at the bus terminal in La Paz and have returned to an empty boat! A clean boat! A boat that is in better condition than when we arrived, mechanically as well as cosmetically, thanks to Tom and Phyllis! They laughed and asked us about our “back of the …
Edging closer to sunset, the wind has never really let up here in Partida – there are several sailboats who have been here all day with us, and a few more have come in. (some of them sporting Bahahaha flags… the fleet is in!) Our trip down from San Everisto was a bit rough so …
some photos.. hard to get these pics into the body of the blog… darn wifi… iffy.. but some are worth trying harder Phyllis took this pic as we were trying really hard to catch a few fish… not productive but we had a good time… later we were heading south in a rather nasty sea.. …
Ah Peace! up at 6, boat ready to go by 7… and everyone ready to STOP THE MADNESS by noon. Of course, there is no going back.. the winds kicked up, the waves turned sharp ( 4 second intervals, even a four foot sea seems insurmountable when they come every four seconds or less)… with …
November 21.. as predicted, everyone had a decent sleep, although there was some anchor watching and depth sounding .. rose to a spectacular sunrise, just in time to get some great photos. Breakfast – then we headed out in the Grady for some fishing. Weather looking OK, nothing too horrific, and this is a chance …
After a loud night ( weddings, revolution day celebration, and the 3:00 a.m. leave-taking of the sport fisher across the dock,) we had a chance to get away from Costa Baja and head North. Warm, relatively calm, and a good run – we arrived in San Everisto as the sun set, in time to show …

Another fabulous day – even when you are doing nothing you are enjoying yourself! We had a great breakfast, leftover rum cake and banana muffins that Phyllis cooked last night! and cantaloupe .. the fruit here has been fantabulous. After breakfast dishes were done, Lawrence and I decided to go for a little hike…. took …
another night, another beautiful day. It is rolly in here but not terrible. Tom has finished the first coat of varnish on the portuegese bridge, it looks gorgeous! Last night the full moon rose in a ball of orange glory and of course I couldn’t get the camera to get a decent picture if my …
Sunday the 13th… Today we left Calida Partida in spite of the wind, as it is supposed to blow up more and we have a little window where we could hop up to the next anchorage, Isla Sanfrancisco. We were up early with intentions to go for a Grady ride through the channel between islands …
