The Story of guy and gal!

As I begin to write this it is March 27 th , Saturday 14:00 hours, temperature is about 82 with a nice North West wind blowing behind us as we sail down the Canal de San Jose which is in the southern portion of the Sea of Cortez, (Gulf of California to the Gringos). Our location is: N 24'57.507 W110 41.563. Since we last wrote to you we think we have seen some of the most beautiful areas that Baja has to offer--yet!!!!!

Sounds like the wind has subsided and the forcast is good so off we go toward Aqua Verde............one of my favourite spots.  It is so green and pretty there.  I will share some seeds I have with one of the villagers there as she was busy in her gardenwhen we were there last.  I will let you know how it goes. Here is a picture of her I took last time we were there. Well everyone, do take care and know that your interest in our blog is very special to us.  There are 29 of you now todate that have signed in...........one more would make 30!!  Please try to add a picture so we can see who you are!!!! We will be away from the internet for a while so do  not panick if you dont hear from us.............talk to you soon.  The Petris at Sea

Leaving behind S/V Ketchia I and Rob and Kim, we sail away in a south east direction from Isla Coronadas towards the southern tip of Isla Carmen. Thankful that we did leave early we spent the next four hours in a rather large swell that was left over from the day before winds. We did have enough SE wind to sail and though that made for a rolling time it was not unbearable but tiring. Both Joey and I concentrated on regaining our sea legs and were glad to arrive at 09:00 to anchor at 25' 59.675'N 111' 06573'W in the Bahia Salinas just around from Punta Perico South. What a beautiful spot! A picture perfect cove with lots of history and very friendly Park attendants we rested with plans to explore the following morning. S/V Intrepid II , with Kelly and Carol aboard, arrived mid day from Puerto Escondido to a reunion of both vessels as we had originally met way back in the fall. It was a treat to spend the day touring the bay and enjoying a few happy hour...
