Sun Harbor Marina had a computer/exercise/gathering room with wifi, computer and printer for resident andf guest use, as well as the most elegant bathrooms I have ever seen. We met a friend of a friend from Hawaii and called Barbara to tell that there was "history" in this rally. Great restaurants nearby. Linda came down and I got to stay across the street with her at the Best Western - good thing as she organized the last of the shopping. Horrible to leave friends behind!

| Our escort out of Point Loma Channel - he came awfully close at times - all 160 plus boats in the parade out the channel were doing their best to get out of the way. We went out into rain, fell in some windless holes, had the autopilor act up but kept going, all nervous and uptight. The stress of getting ready to go did not wear off easily for a few days and then we had the interpersonal stuff that seems to vitally important. Egos belong somewhere else. Ah. Where is the glamour? |

| Frank on watch in unsettled first day weather. We had three strange sailing days to Turtle Bay - dropped the anchor and went ashore, without dogs. Had to do laundry. I couldn't stand the noise and went back to the boat for some peace. The land was rocking and rolling - so might as well stay aboard. OUr dinner ashore was delicious but a major ripoff and a disappointment that the residents would talke advantage of the Baja fleet. |
