Isla Carmen - Punte Colorada - 1/12 - 1/14/11

The next morning (Monday), the light breeze had clocked and was predicted to build from the North / Northwest. We decided to leave our little Bahia Cobre paradise for another anchorage just 10 km south - Punte Colorada, which is protected from N/NW wind. Again, it was just us for 2 nights and we were quite comfortable despite some pretty stiff N/NW winds. Good choice of anchorages, indeed.



You know, we never made it off Begone onto Isla Carman. The air was cool, the breeze was 15-25 knots and the water too cold for swimming. Our time was spent reading, eating/drinking, minor repairs and just enjoying Being! Just a note here - you may know that I can just “Be” with the best of them. Tom’s tendency, however, is more of the “ ‘Begone’ – cause I need to get something done” type. On our second day at anchor at Punte Colorada, as I was considering preparing the dinghy to go explore the island, we were taking about when to leave for La Paz, Tom asked, “You want to look at these rocks for one more day?”
We left our secluded Isla Carmen anchorage the next day (Wednesday, 1/12/11) @ 1215 hours for Isla Espiritu Santo.
