On the way to LaPaz

we are held up in a small bay (Bahia Muetrous) expecting some strong winds out of the north starting Sunday. we had a bit of a blow last night 25kt winds, a lot of resetting of anchors by a few boats, we held well, but slept very light .we came in yesterday from Los Frallies 47 miles back, 50 miles east of Cabo, nice to be out of that money pit, we stayed Los Frallies an extra day , Nikita loved the surf for his new skim board, Noah ate sand as well, a tough sport to master, but just like boys it seamed a lot of fun. That bay had only a fishing village, this one has a reasturant, and a resort that is apparently empty, we are about to investigate. the pace has slowed down, we will have to wait till tues. to move up to La Paz for provisioning. Other than a stubbed toe , and a little sand in the shorts life is good, the boys went back to catch and release after the tramatic experiance of the tuna. We hope it will cool down as we head further north, the last two days have been cookers, Nikita looks native already, white eyes & teeth in chocolate. The kids have been reading on board, thats new, I guess anything to help the long passages pass.On the Hook for now.
