Hola Mexico

Hola Mexico

20141031_135321

We are in Ensenada, on the Baja, it rained last night and it washed away the dust from the city. Our friends Margarethe and Peter from Germany have been here the last few weeks, they have been cruising with their sailboat “Seatime” for several years. We visited them on their boat and got to camp in the marina parking lot. Last night we were treated to the rather loud “Day of the Dead” celebrations. The Mexicans celebrate this holiday not like we do (in Austria). They go the grave yard, bring flowers and food and proceed to party by the graves.

We partied as well, because it was Günters 52. Birthday. On the S/Y Seatime we had tasty delicacies and sparkling wine, we were spoiled.

The last few weeks we spent in California, in Palm Springs we took care of last minute purchases and paperwork, hiked in the pine forests at 8000+ ft and 70°F or on one of the many golf courses in the city at 90 °F. Sue and Banks let us use their home for our stay there and we really enjoyed it.

Then we took off to the Coronado Yacht Club in San Diego and the sailboat “Cayenne” from Austria, where we arrived just in time for Sabines birthday party. A nice celebration, with nice people and tasty dishes. We were able to camp in the harbor there as well.

We want to thank our sailing friends and Sue and Banks again this way.
