Arriving in San Diego

After (and during)our tuna lunch, we continued on to San Diego. It was flat as a mirror and therefore very comfortable. Andi was happily baking a meatloaf as we sailed along. I keep appreciating this boat more and more since she is so comfortable down below while under way. In my previous boats, sailing was done from outside almost exclusively and one rarely went below decks unless to get something. Now it's the opposite. I go out every few minutes to get a clear look all around. But really, I can see fine from inside and with the radar, we're not likely to come upon any shipping unexpectedly. I noted the the Navy ships around SD do not use AIS (automated information about shipping) to identify themselves, so we have to track them with the radar the old fashioned way.
We called ahead and confirmed our slip at Sunroad Marina on Harbor Island. The picture shows the downtown skyline with the barkentine(?) Star of India tied up.
We are now in our slip and starting to work on projects by day and visiting SD friends by night. We managed to borrow a car and so are able to run errands easily. So I am off to West Marine soon. We will be here until we leave for Mexico on 10/29. But the week before that, we fly to North Carolina to help my son, the rockstar, get married. We may not write any more until we leave, but don't be shy about emailing us and telling us what YOU are doing.
