Heading South

We did leave yesterday around noon and headed South. It was totally David's decision; the night before I even tried to once again tell him about all the cool things about going North into the Sea and how it would help him heal his knee. His knee is feeling better and better, and he just decided he wanted to continue on with the adventure. So, here we go!

Late afternoon and evening we had wonderful, soothing, gentle sailing with the waves and warm wind coming from behind. At 0130 this morning we were visited by florescent flying dolphins, at least 15 of them, escorting us on our way. You know me.....very special starlit night entertainment and a gift from the universe. I sang to them and they squeaked and blew. :)

Early this morning the wind died, and we motored into Acapulco just to check it out. Great bay, interesting condo resorts, colorful boats, huge high rises, and gorgeous rocks all mixed up. We anchored off of a little island and cooked breakfast, watching the craziness of banana boaters, sight seers, beach goers, jet skiers, and more. Don't they know Easter Week is over?!! We are getting ready to put the spinnaker up and continue our sail down the coast 175 miles to Puerto Escondido. Onward we go with new energy. Love you mucho. Suzi
