A New View!

Finally, we left Marina Palmira for the La Paz anchorage this morning.  We thought we were going out yesterday -- but it seems we had paid for 1 more night:  so why not stay?

We left early under gray drippy skies but ahead of the forecast afternoon winds.

And true enough, anchoring is like riding a bike -- you don't really forget how to do it.  I only had one brain freeze and could not remember how to STOP the chain from rumbling out.  But a few seconds of panic and that old "righty tidy" rhyme popped into my head.

We picked a spot down near the Navy base -- a nice hole left by a boat headed into the yard.

A new view for the next weeks.
