La Paz

We have been in the Marina de La Paz for the last week, basically working on the boat, but have managed some sightseeing as well. La Paz is a quaint town after the resort town of Cabo San Lucas. The various taco stands around town are well known and very good, with their fresh fish tacos. Dave and I have been eating quite a bit of Mexican food lately - good thing we love Mexican food! Weather here when we arrived was very hot and muggy, which was a surprise as we expected drier weather in line with Southern CA desert weather. However, the last few days have cooled off and it has become quite pleasant in the 70's. No sight of mosquitoes as yet which makes Gail extremely happy! It seems as though most of our boat issues are due to loose wires, nuts, connections, etc. which is saving us a lot of expense. Today's project is replacing the motor mounts and then Dave will install a replacement bilge pump later this week. After that, hopefully the boat will be back in shape and ready for the next crossing. Keeping our fingers crossed!
