We’ve been back at home for a week in Bahia. It feels good to be back on the boat after our wonderful adventures. We stopped to check out the facilities in La Libertad at Puerto Lucia on our way back and have decided to have the boat hauled out there for a few jobs. We are taking the bottom paint down to the jellcoat and reapplying , get some work on the bow roller and some carpentry work inside. We bought a microwave in San Diego and are finally going to have it put in.
I have warmed up to the town of Bahia, afterall. Such contrasts. Picture this – walking down a busy sidewalk with an amateur Juggler juggling MACHETES! I gave him a very wide birth! But the marina where we are anchored felt very welcoming when when we got back, and we had a few very nice get-togethers with the cruising crowd.
We are off to Puerto Lucia at first light tomorrow. Its about 120 miles and we’ll do it in one go.
