Road Trip
Two weeks ago we left Puerto Escondido, shortly after the water heater arrived, one full week after it was expected to arrive. In the meantime, I (Marlene) started having some symptoms that were peculiar, didn't abate, even got worse, so we decided to hustle back south to La Paz, get the car, and return home for some tests. Wouldn't you know it, we left PE heading for La Paz, and we had southerly winds. Oh no....three days of motoring in the "wrong" direction. We drove for another three days, arrived home, had a few tests, couldn't find anything seriously wrong, so we did an about face and headed back to Damiana. We are currently in our favorite motel: Cactus in El Rosario, had dinner at our favorite Mama Espinoza's, and will leave in the morning, heading south. With all the obstacles we've faced this season, northers with really cold temperature that wouldn't quit, broken propeller, broken water heater, medical problem, we're hoping to have a few months of warm weather sailing.
