We have now been in La Paz, Mexico for four months and are making our plans to return to the states for the summer. As usual time has flown by. After getting the boat down here we kept it in the marina . for the first month and then put it on a mooring after that. We have not been able to do a lot with the boat as of yet, beyond a few day sails. It has continued to be ailed by various issues that are still to be resolved. It seems as one is put to bed another comes up. But it is an old boat and sat for a long time. We look forward to having much more time next year on her. We will be putting her on the hard (dry dock) in a few days, where she will await our return. Our apartment has been very comfortable and we have reserved it for next year. Having two bedrooms, three beds and two baths it has been great for hosting friends who have come to visit. We have an open invitation policy for anyone who would like to come and stay for a while (reserve early for next year!) We will be back in October and will again stay till the end of April. We as usual have been very busy here taking friends on our tourist tours, meeting lots of other cruisers, dinners, playing games and lots of laughs. Music has been a big part of our stay here, La Paz has lots of it. We attend an open mic event every other Wednesday that never fails to amaze us with top notch players of every type of music. I am not comfortable playing there (yet) and so started another venue for less then top notch and student type budding musicians, on the other Wednesdays. We have had lots of fun with it and learned lots about putting together all that is involved with stage music paraphernalia (lots of wires, cables, mixer, speakers, amps, mics, stands and the likes, along with managing the event. We look forward to doing more of it when we get back. We have also attended lots of great music events, blues festival, jazz festival, flamenco, country, lots of fun. We had planned on staying down here in La Paz for two seasons using it as a base to sail out of and then sell the boat and do more land travel. We really like La Paz so we will see if we will need to adjust that schedule. We learned long ago that cruisers (and land travelers) plans are drawn in the sand at low tide, highly subject to change. We don’t write as much when we are staying put for a while as there is less to write about, so if you see a long pause it is because we are just chillin’. Our next adventure will be with our grand kids back home. Stay tuned for more Chrysalis Adventures!
