On Sunday morning, our first chore of the day was plan the logistics of moving Kosmos. The ideal time to leave seemed to be 1800 (6:00 pm), when neither the tides nor wind would be too strong against us. We picked an anchorage 18 hours away, which meant we’d pull in around noon, when visibility would be good.
On Thursday afternoon, we’d attempted to go to La Paz via the road. Unfortunately, the logistics hadn’t worked out.
Here are a couple sunrise photos from Friday:
Still wanting to go to La Paz, we started Friday morning off by planning the logistics to take Kosmos. Once we realized that conditions would be more favorable to travel in the early afternoon, we went back to the shallow nook and frolicked in the water some more. Oddly enough, there were less fish and birds than yesterday.
On the passage, I got kind of seasick part of the first day. On the second day, I got more adjusted to the ocean. Day three, I got better sea legs. Days four and five were about the same as day 3. I played lots of video games and read lots of books. I mostly ate soup and microwave burritos. My watches were from 10:00 am to noon and 2:00 – 4:00 pm.
Pendant la traversé, j’ai été un peu malade une partie du premier jour. Le deuxième jour, je me suis habitué à l’océan. Le troisième jour, j’ai finalement commencé à avoir le pied marin. Le troisième et le quatrième jour étaient presque pareil que le jour 3. J’ai joué à beaucoup de jeux vidéo et lu beaucoup de livres. J’ai principalement mangé de la soupe et des burritos réchauffés au micro onde. Les tours de garde étaient de 10h à 12h et de 2h à 4h.
Yesterday morning we played in the water at the sand spit. The first picture is Kosmopolitan (our hard dinghy) in the foreground and Kosmos in the background.
