We just got back from a bike ride with Sharon and John down to Maleque, the next little Canadian hangout on the beach. It was a very fun ride and good exercise. We are back in Barra and will go for a swim before grabbing a water taxi back to Sidewinder with the bikes.
We had dinner last night with Richard and Virginia on Mandy, and it was nice catching up on our last few months and taking in the news from the U.S. Sounds like life is pretty difficult for many people there right now. We will probably be around here tomorrow and then maybe anchor off of Maleque a couple of days before heading down to Las Hadas, Manzanillo. It is beautiful in the lagoon but very difficult being on the boat without being able to dive in the water. By the way, the water must be 80 degrees here in the bay. Nice! There is a nice breeze today, and life is good. Yes, we are blessed. Bye for now. Love, Suzi
Later in the day: This is a colonial town which the people take pride in, and we have already met some wonderfully friendly families who own local tiendas. We are having breakfast with Sharon and John this morning at a wonderful little restaurant called Fortina's, and there is WiFi. We will then go back to Sidewinder, pick up the boards, and go surfing by the harbor entrance. We are talking with them about leaving tomorrow for Las Hadas and next week taking an inland trip up to the colonial town of Colima, where there are several museums and a universidad. We will then go on to the base of the volcano (14,000 ft.) where there is a little town named Colama to explore, with a guide, part of the mountain that is trying to go off right now. Sounds very exciting and beautiful.
