Bahia de Tortugas

We're in Turtle Bay, and plan on staying here for a few days. We'd hoped to be in La Paz for Thanksgiving, but due to the slow start out of San Diego, we'll have it here instead. I got the boat cleaned up this morning... thankfully squid ink is water soluble! We'd bought a mop head in San Diego, and it makes "swabbing the deck" much easier than using a bucket and scrub brush - just dunk it over the side to rinse! We motored in the last hour to charge up batteries and make some hot water for showers. It's a great anchorage with lots of room and good protection from any direction. Today we're going to head for the beach and run, run, run til we can't anymore! It doesn't look like any "kid boats" are here... so that's one reason to keep moving on. We'd like to catch up with Kanaloa before they leave La Paz. We got an e-mail from them that their kids are snorkling around the anchorage, and the water is WARM!. We're thinking we'll spend a few weeks around La Paz. Several friends/family mentioned they're planning to come to Baja in January, so it'd be nice to meet up with as many as possible. Our schedule is totally flexable.... the only thing driving us now is to seek warm water and stay out of stormy weather. -Pete
