From David: We are leaving Tenacatita today heading for Bahia de Navidad to check it out and maybe get some waves there, as there is a south swell heading our way. We may come back here for the swell, as there is a perfect little right hand reef break here in the bay, but it needs to wrap around the bay to work, and I don't know if it will still have the perfect shape when it gets bigger. We took a great trip up the river a few days ago with John and Sharon of Sunsation. It winds through the mangroves, and at times is only as wide as our dingies, not a place to have engine trouble or foul a prop, so going with someone else is prudent. It took about 45 minutes and ended at another beach with a series of palapas where we dined on fish rolls that were to die for. They were deep fried with a great cream sauce smothering them, and one could have fed both of us, but I finished it off by myself.
A nap afterward would have been nice, but we instead headed off to snorkel at "The Aquarium" where there were living coral reefs and tons of tropical fish. But the place that Suzi and I found the following day was even better, and it was just the two of us there: very romantic. I still haven't shot a fish with my new gun, but things are getting bigger and more plentiful, so the time is near; I can feel it. We should be in Bahia Navidad by noon today so I better get this off.
From Suzi: Hi there! As you can see, we were unable to send sailmail this morning; we just arrived in Barra de Navidad, inside the lagoon, with excellent navigation by David, avoiding all the sand bars. It is lovely here and lo and behold, whom do we find anchored here? Mandy. They do not appear to be around, but it will be fun to see them. It will be fun to explore a new place, although you can't swim here in the lagoon.
