11-09, San Jose Del Cabo

11-09, Wed. – San Jose Del Cabo – Got a great night sleep and we decided to stay one more day because the wind and seas were pretty high. It is supposed to be much calmer tomorrow.

The BBQ party last night was a lot of fun. The boat “I Yam What I Yam” (Canadians) had caught a PILE of fish, so they barbequed the fish and we all brought side dishes. We took a Spanish rice dish. It was a nice chance to get to know more of the folks traveling the same places we are going to be.

We paid for another day and took off to explore SJDC. As we walked around the Marina path we saw some very interesting and historical artwork by a very famous local woman by the name of Leonora Carrington. There were sculptures and paintings and chronicles of her life and accomplishments as we walked along. She just passed away two months ago at the age of 96. I imagine you could google her for more information.

We explored the little village around the marina first and had breakfast at a little Inn for 60 pesos each. Then we took a taxi to the downtown. It is a lovely little town with lots of shops and restaurants, a great explore. We had been told there was an excellent French Patisserie so we hunted it down and had delicious crepes with ice cream.

We needed to wash down the boat and get ready for the sail tomorrow, so back to the marina.

We take off tomorrow for Los Frailes, which is an anchorage about 40 miles up into the sea of Coretz. Just a small fishing village there, but a nice place to snorkel, maybe fish and anchor for the night.

Then we leave the following morning for an anchorage called Los Muertos, another 40+ miles north of Los Frailes. Again, only a small fishing village there but another nice place to anchor for the night.

Then we will proceed to La Paz. We won’t be able to update you until we are settled there.
Stay tuned……
