Prior to dinner we ran into Stephen and Heidi from the S/V Narama. They invited us in for a beer and converation. We enjoyed sharing stories related to our travels from San Felipe to here. They were able to not only see sperm whales and pilot whales but recorded some incredible hydrophonic recordings of the pilot whales they shared with us. Most of you think our travels are a bit risky if not crazy, well they are traveling from B.C. to where we met them in San Felipe and ultimately going to Australia by way of the Gallopagos Islands!Today has been a relaxing day as the weather has been a bit windy and the forecast doesn´t look to good for the near future. We may be here another of couple of days if not more? To tell you how long we have been here, we are starting to know all the taco stand owners/operators and also met an indiviual who pitched a 19 strikeout game in 1967. He also claims to know Fernando Valenzuela.
We have seen a lot of baseball players, young and adult, walking around town in uniform. We walked a few miles today trying to find a ball field, but could only find a soccer field and a donkey in a truck. We did however run into two individuals that are biking south on Mex 1, originating in California. One of the bicyclists plans to ride to Guatemala and the other to Nicaragua. Again, this seems to confirm our idea and plans are not so wild, don´t you all agree?
Although we are enjoying Santa Rosalia, we are missing being out on the water catching our fish for taco dinners. We found a great fresh produce stand and we plan on doing it right this time. We are going to load up on goodies to go with the fresh fish. The picture below is a boon and crocket Cabrilla caught about 100 miles ago.
Mark and Doug! It was a pleasure to meet you and swap silly stories. Have a fabulous paddle south, take lot's of photos. We'll be following you as internet allows. Heidi and Stephen.
