Farewell dinner In La Paz

 
11-17-06 Friday - Here we were with Steve and Alice Peterson at our goodby dinner. They rented a car and went off to explore places of interest on land and we set about cleaning up the boat and working on projects again.
We are now residents at Marina de La Paz for a little while. Very nice marina. We would have liked to have left already for some of the neighboring islands, but with tropical storm Sergio lurking around,we decided to hang around for a while until it goes away. It is already dissipating, so by Tuesday we should be off for Mazatlan. That is 225 miles, so it should be an overnighter and all of the next day.
La Paz feels like real Mexico compared to Cabo. We went out for dinner last night and the tab for both of us including soft drinks and tip was $7. That makes going out to dinner a no-brainer. Or course, it is plenty easy to spend much more by going to the fancy places for tourists, but we like hanging out with locals.
We have completed all the formal paperwork to be in Mexico, so things should be easier from now on. Nothing left to do but find all the little slips of paper that had lists of unfinished projects to do. Ah, but maybe a nap and a little reading first. I could really get into the manana thing. Don't forget to write and let us know how YOU are doing. Posted by Picasa
