A few thoughts and pictures from San Blas.
1. The mosquitoes aren’t quite as bad as they say. Except if you’re stupid enough to arrange a dock part at dusk. Our last evening that’s what happened and I think we all got a bunch of bites as parting gifts – despite the DEET.
2. Tom really does love fixing engines. Our friends, Jeff and Sharon, on “About Time” had engine trouble and Tom was delighted to be able to resolve the problem.
3. Small Mexican villages are amazing places. Especially when you're on a quest. Both for La Sirena AND for a hotel called The Bucanero Hotel where our friend Dave Case stayed in the mid-50's as he was searching for parrots to import to the USA.
3. It’s great to have Spanish skills that are good enough to talk with 4 year olds and taxi drivers. We were able to learn so much from a taxi driver in between his and our “Spanglish”. Below are pics from our trip "up the hill" to see the "Bells of San Blas". Absolutely beautiful and rich in history.
And now, off to Mazatlan.
