Third Trip to Playa Pichilingue, Day 2

The anchorage got rolly on Sunday evening, and the waves continued to build all night. On Monday morning, it was seriously uncomfortable in the anchorage. None of us slept well, and we were all up early.

The less than 1/4-full moon was still in the eastern part of the sky as the sun rose on Monday, January 16

Moin and Erin Sky took off first thing in the morning. As soon as Keith finished his schoolwork, we went to shore with The Mob to escape the rocking. The kids ran around on the beach for a while, then we all went to lunch at El Molinito.

Both times that we’ve eaten there, we’ve sat on the patio. The water below the patio was so clear that we could see the fish in the water! As with most of the outdoor restaurants we’ve eaten at in the La Paz area, there were also little birds flitting around. Today something happened that we haven’t seen before. A sea plane puttered around the corner from the channel into the anchorage, then it took off!

When we got back to Kosmos, we were happy to find that it was much calmer than when we’d left. The Mob set sail from the anchorage shortly after lunch. With all our friends gone, we had a mellow evening onboard, which was good. We needed some down time. Here was the sunset.

The seas continued to calm down as the evening wore on, making the evening all the more pleasant. However, the winds did pick up again shortly before we went to bed.
