Sharing Scenes of La Paz

La Paz is a lovely, welcoming city with unique and changing sites around every corner.  We have settled into a winter routine here:  listen to the morning net, dinghy ride ashore to have coffee at the cruisers club, run a few errands and fill the day with projects.

The sailboat Orion has a boat T-shirt that is shared with guests.  (See photos of Cathy and Mike below.)  The poem on the back about sums up how many cruisers feel about La Paz:

ORION of the Sea of Cortez
ORION
Tease me
Pinch me
Squeeze me
Hug me
Please me
Kiss me
La Paz me

Enjoy our daily view:

View from anchorage #1.  We moved after first major wind event!  Too many boats, too close!

Street musician we found on a walk through a neighborhood.

Sunset view from anchorage #2.  Boats better spaced; magote sand spit to the right and town to left.

The circus is in town -- so drive around with a tiger to promote the Big Top!

The Big Party is fast approaching -- the banners are going up & the malecon is being fixed up.

Easy bird watching on the low tides

Looking out to the magote from ashore.  We are anchored out there somewhere!

Sharing sundowners with the local dolphin pod!  We can hear them through the hulls at night.

Cathy -- our host from Orion during sail boat race on Sunday.  Bring on the sunscreen!

Captain Mike -- Let's Have Fun!

Approaching the start of the race -- almost 20 boats participated in light winds and flat seas.
