2014-03-13 Mazatlan Shopping & Dinner?

16 March 2014 | Mazatlan Shopping & Dinner?
Well today was a goof off day for me. I went to Home Depot and picked up a couple of latches to keep a couple of the door from banging when underway if they are open. Like the forward head door and the aft cabin door. This way the air flow is good in those areas. I then wet to WAL-MART and did some shopping for fresh veggies and fruit. Of course I picked up some Chihuahua Cheese, bread, cereal, eggs and Yogurt. Just the bear necessities of life, you know. After putting it all away, it was off to the ‘Gold Zone’ for a bit of Tourist Souvenir shopping. After walking a few miles and going into the shops, telling them what I was looking for and showing them a picture on my phone I found it. You know those thimbles that are collectables for places you go? Well it seems that only in the Gringo areas are they found. I guess people from other countries aren’t interested in them. Then off to El Cid Marina to join up with the awesome folks on SV APPA, Marcus, Jen, Max, Ben and Sam. We had a little conversation time beside the pool, and then went to the boat for a bit before going to the restaurant. A friend of theirs had caught a very large Dorado and the restaurant cooked it for them and we had that and the salad bar. It was a great time and I bed them farewell and came back to my home at about 9 pm.
