We've been on our trip for a whole month now, and we've gotten all the way to San Diego. Whee.
I zoomed down to the copy place in Chula Vista this morning, ran off ten copies of the log, stuck them in the envelopes, and mailed them right there. Then I crossed the street and had my hair cut, so I won't have to carry 20 pounds of foliage around on my head in the tropics. Returned to San Diego, took the bus to Old Town, and bought flags for Costa Rica, Panama, and Belize, forgetting that we already had a Panamanian flag on the boat. Oh well, we can probably sell the extra to another cruiser.
Bought a few groceries and returned to the boat. Roy was gone. Turned out he'd finished mounting the solar panels, and while he was testing them, he went over to George Monier's boat for a pleasant visit.
Roy wants to test the solar panels again tomorrow, so we're going to stay here tonight, take the boat to the City Dock tomorrow, and leave for Mexico Wednesday. So far the solar panels are doing a good job.
I laid out our course, non-stop to Cabo San Lucas. Of course, we can always detour into a harbor if we want to.
This Blog is our mother's logs from her sails aboard Jofian. Our mother, Clare Holt, wrote a log every day and after her first sail to Mexico, she bought a laptop to write and save her logs. She sailed when the World Wide Web was first created, there was not as much on the Internet back then, no Wi-Fi, Internet access was very limited. I know if she were sailing today that she would be putting her logs in a Blog, so I am doing it for her. Mom’s logs to Alaska are on saillogsalaska.blogspot.com.
