Second, the new mooring ball is so relaxing and dreamy! I dont worry about us dragging anchor, Pirates or storms. Plus it's about $300 per month and comes with weekly 'pump outs', and dingy dock privileges. It's also about a mile closer to the shore than where we were anchored and the dock at Pancho's. So I'm liking it. *drawback: zero internet in the harbor. i have to drag my laptop to shore and sit in the marina to blog. (good with the bad)
Third, Happy New Year! we survived a very mundane celebration that ended at about 10pm when i fell asleep. At midnight lots of fireworks woke me for a minute or so. Then i was back asleep ushering in 2017 in a dreamy fashion.
Yesterday they had a "Polar Bear" jump into the harbor and i watched. (careful to stay back out of range of the splash!)
We also drove down to Bahia Honda Park to check it out for a future day sail.
Today is laundry day and a quick trip to the grocery store. Next i will either work on my lengthy to-do list or take a nap. Lots of tough decisions in 2017. I want to be better prepared than this guy's spare tire. i want to start my voyage with the spare in good shape!
May all your Pirate encounters be with friendly ones!
