We're leaving Barra de Navidad today, heading north to Tenecatita, and other ports along the way to Puerto Vallarta. We are considering doing the Puddle Jump from P.V. to the South Pacific... stay tuned!
If we are to do this, we have a fairly short time to get the boat ready by the March 1 departure, and a ton of projects to get done in the mean time.
Stay tuned, we'll keep you informed.

Antoine went fishing on his friend Churchill's boat, and caught and reeled in a huge 200+ lb (100 kg) blue marlin!

We went to a rodeo in the village of Colimilla. A brass band played Mexican Oom-pah music, really loud. The Mexican people really love their brass bands!

Pascale made a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner which included a roast turkey, cranberry sauce made with fresh cranberries, pumpkin bread, green beans with garlic and ginger, sweet potatoes, herb-garlic-cornbread stuffing, and of course, pumpkin pie with chopped pecan crust. It was heavenly!

Today was the 100th anniversary of the Mexican revolution (1910). The town of Cihuatlan had a parade, with townfolk dressed in 1910 period attire and carrying guns. This group was very pleased to have their picture taken.

Antoine and Pascale board the water taxi back to Isla Navidad, and to our boat, at Barra de Navidad. The warm November evening glows.

Antoine spent the night on the town with his Mexican friend Kenneth, stopping here to enjoy streetside tacos. Antoine learned the finer points of adding cilantro and salsa picante to his taco from Kenneth.
