In the El Cid

Dan/ Sunny and warm!
Wandering herds of iguanas, fish jumping all around, great weather, and smiling faces- we must be at the El Cid Marina in Mazatlan!
This is a really cool place, a true Mexican Riviera resort with the Old World service so rare anymore.
A choice we as cruisers have is to go north into the Sea of Cortez, south to Puerto Vallarta or split the difference and go east to Mazatlan. Compromise being the better part of valor, we decided that Maz and El Cid in particular will be where we are going to leave Papillon while we take care of biz and visit family for the holidays.
It is a really nice, safe, secure facility in an area that will allow us to decide which direction we will head after the first of the year.
