Tuesday, March 9, 1993 - San Diego, CA

The Manana Net came in loud and clear this morning. I signed on and asked about taking a boat into Mexico without having the papers stamped in advance. They were very nice. Someone told me those papers are no longer needed. Just take the crew list to the Port Captain. That makes me feel a lot better. Someone else asked if I'd gotten my XE2 (Mexican ham license) yet. I said I was going to Tiajuana tomorrow to get it. Mike at Pacific Marine came on and said to come by the store and he'd give me directions.
I went to Pacific Marine that afternoon, but Mike had left for the day. The woman who was there xeroxed the map and directions for me. Unfortunately, they're driving directions. I asked about a city bus, but she didn't know.
Went to a copy place and made the copies of my license and tourist card that I'll need tomorrow. Bought a few groceries, but forgot fish.
Roy finished working on the chain washer. Tomorrow he'll install the wind speed and direction indicator.
Talked with my daughter Nancy on the phone about her and Jim joining us in Mexico. It's going to be tricky to coordinate, because when we arrive at a certain place depends on the weather and other factors over which we have no control. Suggested the possibility of their going through the Panama Canal with us.
(That would have been a great if we had made it.)
