La Paz pics

We arrived in La Paz hoping to find a slip in Marina de La Paz but that was not to be. Instead we found an opening in Marina Palmira. There are four marinas here but it is crowded! Our marina is beautiful & has all of the services you need. We are about 2-3 miles from the town of La Paz & take a shuttle when we need to. The first pic is Lucy the goose. She patrols the docks & waterways, a survivor of the 2003 hurricane. She lives in the marina & is fed by about everyone (even me). She talks to you & will come to you when you call her name (but you better have vegetables or bread in hand). We have met many new friends, some of which we sail to the island with (more on that later). It is beautiful here, some hot days, some windy days & some in between. We have been "getting the lay of the land" (that would be finding the grocery stores, best restaurants & bars & just checking things out) for the past few weeks. La Paz is the capitol of the Baja California Sur with over 190,000 in population. It is translated as "The Peace". C
