They say that La Paz is the bungee cord for sailors. People arrive -- and if they have to leave, they are always planning their return. That is certainly true for us! There are great people, interesting things to do, talented yacht repair and service folks and we have friends here. Below is just a few snapshots into our past 17 days here.
Of course there's work to do on the boat. Tom's biggest concern was replacing our bimini cover (shade is our friend). We were fortunate to have Danny of Pacific Threads work with Tom to make a beautifully engineered cover...

The new bimini -- shade and a secure platform for our solar panels. Awesome job!
And then there's fun...the 10th Annual Bay Fest was happening with this great Luau on Friday night
Hula dancers performed
Presenting the Pig
Our friends from Crockett (now from La Paz) came down for the festivities.
Huge thanks to them for all their hospitality.

Tom and Vicky called up on the sand stage for a little hula!
We missed Easter with the family but colored eggs and celebrated Begone style!
A little Easter morning walk down the Malecon.
Plus, Vicky and I (Suzanne) were introduced to Susu (pictured below with Vicky and Nina, her horse) thanks to Melanie and got to ride the streets with barking dogs and trails up the hills to exercise her horses. It was a fabulous ride!
Lot's more fun was shared by all here in La Paz. Dinners with new and old friends, wandering around town, working on the boat, and just getting ready for the next chapter in the adventure.
That chapter starts tomorrow.
