Captain Ron
06 December 2012 | La Cruz, Mexico
We the day by getting the portable generator out of hiding. We have only had to use it once so far this year but the solar panels just don't seem to be able to keep up with our refridgeration because it needs to run almost 24 hours a day when it's almost 90 degrees out.
While we charged that batteries, I jumped in the water to have a peek at the prop. Yup, we picked up one of those long lines. Damn. I couldn't dive down to untangle us so Ken will have to do it tomorrow. It didn't look too bad.
We went to town to finish checking in with the Port Captain (I had forgotten one document yesterday) and then we had a little lunch. We found a tienda after lunch who offers a good supply of fresh fruits and vegies and bought grapefruit, green beans, carrots and a tangerine. All for about 80 cents US.
The marina was playing Captain Ron on an outdoor screen tonight so we headed in to watch that. That movie is even funnier when you watch it with a bunch of other sailors. We were a half hour late for the movie. I just can't seem to figure out what the local times are every time we move! Oh, well, it usually doesn't matter. :)
