Keith’s Perspective on Turtle Bay and the Passage to Ensenada/Le point de vue de Keith sur Turtle Bay et le passage vers EnsenadaKeith’s Perspective on Turtle Bay and the Passage to Ensenada

Turtle Bay is a nice bay. It has a small town, and some restaurants. There was a person who  had a water taxi service and could take us to the town on his boat. But he dropped us off at the pier, which was covered in bird poop! It was disgusting. So we did beach landings when we went to town one our own dinghy.

Keith’s Perspective on the Passages from La Paz to Turtle Bay and on Whale Watching/Le point de vue de Keith sur les passages de La Paz à Turtle Bay et sur l’observation des baleines

I had a good time on the first passage from Costa Lotta to Magdalena Bay. The seas were calm. I mostly played video games and ate ice cream. I slept well, and in my parent’s bed! I didn’t have to do a  night watch. But I had to do some day watches.

Le premier passage de Costa Lotta à Magdalena Bay s’est bien passé. La mer était calme. Presque tout le temps j’ai joué aux jeux vidéos et mangé de la glace. J’ai très bien dormi, et dans le lit de mes parents! Je n’avais pas de tour de garde la nuit. Mais je devais faire des tours de garde la journée.

Keith’s Perspective on Our Last Week in La Paz/Le point de vue de Keith sur notre dernière semaine à La Paz

Overall, I liked La Paz. There were parts that weren’t so good, but those were far outranked by the good parts. There’s lots of good food and nice scenery. I can’t say I’m sad to leave La Paz, but only because I want to see my friends at home. We took the shuttle to town several times. We ate out every time. We ate at a place called Nim. I got some chicken, but I didn’t like the sauce. We ate at a place called El Zarape and a pasta place. We went to an art museum. All the art was creepy. We went to an anthropology museum, but it wasn’t that interesting

Keith’s Perspective on La Paz (Costa Baja)/Le Point de vue de Keith sur La Paz (Marina Costa Baja)

I am having a good time at La Paz. We’ve eaten out a lot: breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner.

Steak and potatoes from the Spanish Restaurant in the Costa Baja Resort. Keith loved it.

Je passe un bon moment à La Paz. Nous mangeons beaucoup dehors : petit déjeuner, brunch, déjeuner et dîner.

We went to an animal sanctuary with some friends. There were lots of cool animals. There were turtles that looked like they had red eyes. There were also tortoises!

Keith’s Perspective on Punta Salinas, Isla San Francisco and Costa Baja/Le point de vue de Keith sur Punta Salinas, Isla San Francisco et Costa Baja

I enjoyed my time at Punta Salinas. It has salt flats that used to be salt mines; they were fun to explore. We went on the salt flats, which felt like snow and ice. But there were other salt flats that had a layer of mud under it. Well, not quite mud. It was this icky black stuff.
