Shrimpers In Agua Verde

11 January 2012 | Agua Verde
We got our refrigerator part from a very helpful couple who brought it back to Puerto Escondido from the states for us. Thank you Sunlover and Sealover! Now the reefer is working well again. While we were there we met the folks on 'Angelos', Kip and Mary. Mary put out quite the feed for us which we enjoyed immensely. Kip traded copies of our Kindle books for a huge number of movies for our media player. Nice. Buena Vista is finally moving into the digital age. We left Puerto Escondido and within four or five hours we were sailing past Punta San Pasquel, by Roca Solitaria, and into Bahia Agua Verde. We weren't expecting to see a small fleet of shrimp boats anchored there. There wasn't a person in sight. They were all sleeping as they leave in the late afternoon to do their trade and return in the morning.
