Bahia de Tortugas

We sailed two days and nights, arriving here around 3p.m., in time to drop anchor, cook our first steak dinner and get some uninterrupted sleep.  The overnight sails are beautiful, stars, meteoroids, light wind, but quite cold.  It's nicer here in Turtle Bay, friendly people, like Enrique the diesel seller who also owns the restaurant.  We ate a yummy dorado lunch and watched the fishermen come in and unload their pangas on the beach, filled with yellowfin tuna, some whole, some eaten by lobos, or sharks.  They used all of it.  We have a great anchorage, only about 6 boats here.  We plan on leaving tomorrow around noon for Bahia Santa Maria, which will be another two day and night sail.  The moon is getting fuller, so it'll be easier to see in some ways, and hopefully warmer as we get south.  It's been nice here weather-wise, probably high 70's with a cool breeze.  This little town is more like what I expected to see, dirt roads, small cramped houses, lots of Ford Explorers, and people who are affable.  Fun place.  Really, this is why I wanted to come, get out of So. Cal. and all the hustle and bustle.  We were the only ones in the hilltop restaurant, and were waited on by Enrique's mother in law, his wife did the cooking and the grandson (Angel) trying to run downstairs before nana could yell at him.  We gave a hat to Aaron the diesel boat helper, he saw mine and asked if he could have one.  Anyway, seemed like a good thing to do as we want to spend more time here on our return trip. I'll add photos when we have a high speed connection.
