East Lemmons

We were headed to the East Lemmons as they were having an Ulu race, these are the local dug out canoes with sails rigged in them. Again, the East Lemmons are much like the rest of San Blas, small Islands surrounded by reefs. One of the islands in the chain has a restaurant/bar on it and the locals sell their hand made molas from there houses. We spent a few days here and really enjoyed it, it was calm, the winds had decreased and we met several new cruisers.
Everything happens on Panama Time....manana! The BBQ that was supposed to happen after the races was very disorganized and did not take place until very late that day. Doreen and I helped them cut the veggies,etc ready for the hamburgers.
Whilst here we had a couple of the Master Mola makers come to the boat. Carole bought a couple more molas, these were very well done, you cannot even see the stitching.

Here are some images we took of El Salvador and Guatamala. These images show the diversity and culture of these countries.

Here is some shots of us and other boats crossing the bar at Bahia del Sol. Some of the images look worse then it actually is as they are taken from a jetski just ahead of the boats. Everyone enjoyed the ride. Some of the women who helmed across the bar said it was better then sex; but I doubt that.

In July 2010 NautiMoments, with her crew of 5 onboard, joined 8 other member boat of the Blue Water Cruising to sail offshore. This was a test of our boats and our selves. At 8:00 on July 13 we sailed from our birth in Point Roberts, down the Strait of Georgia, Boundary Pass, Haro Strait, Strait of Juan de Fuca and up the west coast of Vancouver Island to Ucluelet, with overnight stops in Sooke, Bamfield and Turtle Bay (in the Broken Island Group). We then sailed offshore before returning to the Broken Group. Then we sailed the return trip to our home port of Point Roberts.
