Becky/87 degrees, beautiful!
Our overnight sail was mostly a motor/sail on the nose. We had to zig zag back and forth on the rum line. This wasn't so bad because the wind was very low. We dropped our anchor at 9 am and headed to shore to check in. On our way in, a guy motioned Denny to slow down, so we went by his boat and told him "sorry" and asked where customs was. He told us two places, one charges way to much and the other reasonable. So of coarse we went to the reasonable. When we got there, we were told to go upstairs and use the computer and fill out the form and print it. This was the first time we had to do it ourselves and it makes a lot of sense. The check in cost $7.25. Then we headed to shop for beer, wine, and cheese, which we got and brought back to the boat. We also picked up some baby back pork ribs for tonight's special dinner.
It is nice to see cruiser boats again, although you don't see any US flags flying.
When asked a question, Denny keeps saying "si" (yes in Spanish), I keep reminding him it's "we". I'm sure he will get the hang of where we are soon enough!
Life is good on Kokomo
