The Story of guy and gal!

After spending the day anchored in beautiful and peaceful Bai Chamala we will have an early supper of Mexican shredded beef with a touch of onions and green native peppers over a bed of rice of course.........with a side of mixed salade.  Hmmm can hardly wait!   I found a Mexican beer sin(without) alcohol so I am off to have that with a twist of lime.  Do check out the Captains Page and the Flicks and Pages and Galley Tabs have new entries as well. Tomorrow see pictures of this incredible beach.  Good Nite.   Lue

Our brother-in-law Marcel Girard, husband to my eldest sister Colette, passed away peacefully this morning at 5:00 am  in West Kelowna British Columbia. Our thoughts and prayers are offered today for the Girard family that includes his sons and their spouses:  Ron and Patricia in Washington, Rene and Louise in Vancouver, Mark and Natasha in Ontario and eldest daughter, Denise and Jon in Red Deer and all of their children and grand children.   Respectfully, Claes and Louise

Weighed anchor yesterday morning, January 6th and that would be a Thursday --left  Chacala around 7 oclock and made our way towards Bahia Banderas (Bay of Flags) , the largest bay on the west coast of Mexico which has  about a  20 mile opening. Unfortunately, we had no wind so we motored all the way, which give us the opportunity to make water and top our tank up.  Again, it was a blessing at the end of the day to have a nice hot shower.  

Weighed anchor at 4:30 and are underway towards Isla Isabella, 85 miles South east from here. Our location at present is:     23 degrees 7 minutes degrees North          106 degrees 23 minutes West The weather is very calm.  Small swell and calm with little wind.  We look forward to the sunrise and glorious day ahead of us.  Hopefully the wind will pickup so we can sail.  Right now we are motoring  at 5 knots and making water.  All is well..............I am drinking Ginger tea and the Captain is on his second coffee. Check us out on the map and have a little navigation study -with your kids or spouse!! Prayers are always welcome and much appreciate.     Próspero Felize y un ~ o Nuevo Ano!!!!! The Captain and First Mate............back at Sea

The Lord willing we will be leaving Mazitlan early tomorrow morning...........as soon as we get up. We will have a very long day..............85 miles.............so that transelates into about 17 hours.............so we shall see 2011 at the Wheel............talk to you then.  The Captain and I

You know some times you have to be at the right place at the right time .  And I was today! Went in early for my dental appointment without the Captain ( he and Peidro finished adjusting the mosquito curtains.)   I strolled around town and just could not resist all the after-Christmas sales; I purchased some Mexican Jeans..............now these babies are a size 9 and pretty tight- that is the style here with lots of sparkle on them.   Plus I added a really cute little top and a pair of Mexican sandles--wait till you see these.  From the back they look like shoes and from the front-sandles.  Got to love them for  a whole 140 pesos, which is equivalent to about 12 bucks..............now I am styling.  For a total of $40.00  I am ready for New Years.   Ano Nuevo!!!! On my way home, met up with Marilyn and Jim and they took me to the Iguana tree.................and I had my first viewing of an Iguana...........enjoy the pictures. in ...
