Our season in La Paz is drawing to an end for this year. We made some last minute memories!
Our schedules lined up and Jeanne & Tom of s/vEagle and La Paz Cruiser's Supply came over for dinner!
What a fun time that was! Jeanne & Tom have been a huge part of our cruising years here in La Paz. Always a wealth of information and they are able to get what you need or what you are looking for. It is difficult to express in words just what these two mean to us!
We didn't get to meet "Pancho" the Eaglet, but you have to save something for the next time...
The sunsets have been amazing!
We had dinner with Gena & Paul from s/v Scarlet Fever at one of our favourite spots in La Paz - Sorstis!
Graham got another weekend of kite boarding in.
One last visit to the best french bakery in all of Baja and maybe even Canada & the USA too - Dolce Romero - for delicious french baguette!
Pep-Eh is happy to be wherever we are.
We helped Graham take s/v Arctic Tern out on a sea trial to test his newly installed auto pilot. Welcome aboard "Otto"!
Got to say "see you later" to Erica who has been our very accommodating laundress while we are in La Paz. You'd almost think she was dutch her laundry is that good!
One last visit to Mesquite - another of our favourite hang outs. Chateau Briand for two - unbelievable!
Scot Free Eh is all put to bed. Bimini & solar panels are off and stowed. Fore sail is off and stowed. Dinghy is partially deflated, covered and securely tied down. Mainsail & cover are securely lashed for high winds.
Everything is ready for transit.... this year we are shipping Scot Free Eh back to Vancouver via freighter. We have loved every second of our four seasons here in Mexico. When we retired in 2012, we headed south without being retired in our home cruising grounds. We really want to be the people who don't have to raise anchor on Sunday to be home for work on Monday. This summer we will cruise the Pacific Northwest and beyond. We know that Mexico is just a hop, skip & a jump away!
Our 1977 GMC Classis coach - Eh-Train - is loaded and ready to roll. The "little black jeep of the family" is hooked up and ready to tow. We are northbound to Canada. Should take us a month (ish) to be back home in Vancouver.
We timed our departure so that we could give Graham a ride to the bus - we didn't want to miss a second that we could be hanging out with him before he left to go north for the summer.
