We sure hope you're all good there at home too. Actually, we know better as you can clearly see in this shot of our backyard in Grants Pass........it may seem like the end of the world to those who need to do a little more shopping.
This is our backyard here in La Paz. Any questions about why we're here?
And, it looks like we'll stay here this season too. Our friends on Gitana and Sea Boa left for the mainland a couple days ago - in fact they're probably going to reach Isla Isabella tomorrow AM - and we chose not to go along this time. Not an easy decision, as we've been planning to see Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta this season for some time now. But, when it was all said and done, neither of us wanted to go all that badly. Instead, we're going to hang out here where we are very comfortable and life is good and get going on some boat projects. We have done our share of boat work, but so far, none of it has been cosmetic. So now we have time to do the varnishing and painting and such that has been neglected. And hang with friends here in La Paz.
That being said, it looks like we'll be picking up the anchor tomorrow morning - Christmas eve. We'll sail to the islands with many anchorages about 25 miles from here to spend 4 or 5 days with friends on Hanali and Solmate. Hoping to get some good photos to share. For now, here are some shots from around La Paz.

This is the Malecon on a quiet Sunday afternoon. It's a miles long boardwalk of hand laid tile at the waters edge. With artwork and resting places, restaraunts and vendors of all sorts, the malecon is a gathering place as well as a thoroughfare.
The main North South road through the City runs alongside, and parades and celebrations happen here most any time of day or night.

So here's wishing all of you the very best of the season and more fun next year.
