Time Zone switch

13 February 2011 | La Cruz
Warmer maybe hot
Today we went into the beach to walk the row of restaurants and stretch our legs. We were chatting with a local when the time was mentioned at it turned out we had changed time zones we are now on central time. We are now two hours ahead of Seattle. We are moving east!
After breakfast we retrieved our anchor and set sail for La Cruz and had a spectacular sail. 10-15 kts of breeze downwind to our destination in shorts with no shirt wing and wing with flat seas... ah Banderas Bay priceless.
We had been invited to dinner aboard Kokomo and we decided to bake brownies. The timer rang at exactly the moment we wanted to drop anchor in a crowded anchorage with 15 kts of breeze. No promlema quick trip to the galley after dropping the anchor while I finished snugging the snubbers.
Today was a perfect day... so sorry no pictures I will do better tomorow we go into La Cruz to wander around and check it out.
