Off we go!!! Mexico here we come...

10/30/06 Monday
We are just about to leave San Diego after another week of working on projects and flamenco parties.  The boat is about as ready as she is likely to be.  I never got around to building bookshelves, but will do it in Mexico.
Yesterday was the big kickoff party for the Baja-ha-ha race/rally.  There will be about 160 boats going on it.  There was a big costume party - I was Popeye and Andi was Olive Oyle.  I don't know if there will be any pix.
Steve Peterson flew in right in the middle of it all and will be joining us as crew for this first leg to Cabo.  He settled right in and made himself at home in the guest quarters.
So now I've got to quit typing and start taking off the sail covers, etc.  We have a start at 11AM and lots of things to do.  For the next few posts, there will be no pictures as we will be using our sailmail email to send the posts in via radio.  Sailmail doesn't permit attachments, so no pictures until we get to La Paz and get internet again.  Enjoy yourselves this Halloween.
