La Paz

We are enjoying La Paz. We now have a strong Internet connection so I can get caught up on the blog. There are great showers here…nice pressure and hot water! There is a swimming pool, which we will probably never get a chance to use, a Laundromat, convenience store and a Marine Chandlery.

Love the Grafitti in Mexico!

A handicap ramp that shoots straight down into the telephone pole! Yikes!

A very unique and eclectic Hotel we took a little  tour of
while walking the streets of Downtown La Paz

December 8^th, Rick, Harley and I took a one-way free van ride into downtown La Paz and walked around. We walked all the way to Marina La Paz, ate a late lunch nearby, then walked all the way back to our marina. It was a really nice day. Fun to see La Paz since we have heard so much about it and how great it is. Rick had not been to La Paz by water since the 80’s. So it’s changed quite a bit! I like it here and wish we had more time to spend but we are in a hurry to get to Cabo by the 18^th of December where we will be meeting up with our kids (all but Tanner) and grandkids for a week. We will be anchored out and the kids will be staying at Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach. Danielle, Rick’s daughter will be in the San Jose del Cabo area with her mom and some friends during the same time. So at some point we all plan to have dinner together. We are so looking forward to seeing everyone! We will make a few more stops to get to Cabo San Lucas. From here we plan to go to Ballandra, Los Muertos, Frailes, San Jose del Cabo and finally CABO! Cabo is not our favorite anchorage since we will be surrounded by Cruise ships, jet skis and Panga’s zipping by making waves. And there’s the noise from the resorts and restaurants in the evenings that keeps us awake most nights. But it’s all worth it since we can see the kids. It will be a very Merry Christmas!
