The Story of guy and gal!

Good morning and a beautiful one it is.   The mornings  dampness and  chill are short lived as around 6:30 am  the sun arises to dry the wheel house up.  Shortly there after with  coffee  perking we are feeling fine.

Happy December all!  Whew,  how times passes when you are busy,eh??  You know someone told us we did not have an accent the other day --how funny is that!!  Here there are many Canadians, Australians and boats flying African flags... and of course a few Americans.  So there are alot of accents amongst the many of us who are working away at our Spanish lessons. ( Seems like I am sleeping in Spanish these days!!!  HAHAH) Check the other tabs at the top of this page; a few updates on all of the choices and lots of new pictures.  I will leave you with those little tips and encourage you to become a follower of our exciting journey and if you are one or two already PLEASE check in with us once in awhile leaving a comment  so that we know you are out there.  Your presence, interest and prayers are very much appreciated and required.  Have not heard from KING Joey lately so we are thinking he is muey comfortable on the couch.  Stay war...

After a very fun and tasty supper at Banditos last evening with our friends Jacquie and Don from S/V Little Christian we made our way back to the boat via our little "truck" the dingy.  The storm has abated so we were gently lulled to sleep.  The last few nights had been very exciting as there has been somewhat of a wind blowing as well as an abandoned cement boat doing a walk about the channel.  Seems here that the Navy and or Port Authorities are not concerned with such matters so it is up to each boat owner to keep an eye out.  Needless to say we had a few restless nights keeping an eye on this monster. (It was quite nice to sit in the wheel house and watch the big fall moon but that eventually got a little tiring around eleven oclock...... Yesterday a young man took possession of it and he is not the proud owner.  Strange but a relief. Yesterday I ventured off to the Centro de La Paz by myself and figured out how to use the autobus.  Cost a whole 8 p...

Over 250 folks served yesterday for Turkey Day.  It was well done and well attended.  Pretty warm to be eating such a huge meal but we managed.  HAHAH.

Wow…….the first few weeks of our return to our floating home   has been pretty exciting!   We made it back into the water without any incidences and most things are going well.   It is amazing how well everything aboard survived   the last six months intense   heat; I found a couple of candles that had melted, no bugs anywhere.   Claes was frustrated with his little outboard for the dingy as even after leaving it well serviced would   not run to his specifications.   (Don’t think I have ever seen a motor that has stumped him yet but this little 2.5 horse Yamaha is being really finicky).   Sea Otter Jimmey, a fella here discovered a small little plug in the carb that was missing and voila it is working for   1500 pesos.   Since our dollar is doing really well that was a pretty good price.  

Just a quick little hello to check in and let you all know that we are well and all is going pretty well. Today we are heading in to watch the parade so hopefully will have some pictures later today. Turn your Skype on in the morning and or in the evening if you want to chat with us.  We have internet but it does work when it chooses.  HAHAH   just like everything else here in this lovely part of Gods' world. (We are not complaining as we heard that there is SNOW  in our home land.)  Sorry about that. Talk to you later. Lue and Claes
