This
page should load fairly fast for you, because the image file sizes
are
all pretty small. With Mexican processing, there is no more to be
seen
in
a larger version! With that in mind, just wait 'till he gets to Nicaragua!
Still,
these images tell the story...
Ensenada,
with a huge Mexican flag in the background.
It
takes 20 knots of wind to make it fly, and then it's too bouncy for a photo,
so
you get it on a calm day.
"WIND
GIFT" and a Love boat, in Cabo San Lucas.
"WIND
GIFT" is the pretty one.
A
magnificent rock, guarding Isla Isabella
A
view of the shoreline, Isla Isabella.
This
is a nesting ground for the Magnificent Frigate Bird,
so
they are always soaring overhead.
Bye
- bye! Isla Isabella. Not very big, huh?
Punta
Graham. I'd like to think they named it after me.
I'm
going to have to find out how it was named.
Manzanillo.
See? No roads to the houses.
And
here is a little story from Manzanillo:
Manzanillo
has little mountains right in the middle of it. Houses are built
right up
the
mountainsides, on the North slopes. The South slopes are too hot.
There
are no roads to these houses; only stairs. Nobody has a car anyway,
so who
needs
a road? It seems there is always music playing, all day long.
Maybe a night
club,
or maybe just a loud radio, but it is pleasant to have background music
all the time.
To
morrow, I eat fish. This is how it came about:
I
am anchored with the fishing fleet. Most of the fishing boats are
pangas. Yesterday,
one
came floating by, unattended. I put a line to it and started towing
it back into shore.
I
was rowing, because I don't need my motor here, since everything is so
close.
Then,
along came a panga with a motor, and they towed me and my tow into shore,
to
the owner of the lost panga.
So
today when they came in from fishing, they gave me a free fish for saving
thier boat.
