I'm writing this post from down below in the galley (hee hee, that's geek boatspeak for lounge and crash-out spot) while I should be up above on the (poop) deck admiring the scenery...
We're stepping momentarily away from La Paz. Friends from Sioux Falls are going to Cabo San Tacky for a vacation and we're going to hang out with them! Arriba! And it just so happens that we're expecting! Motor parts, sail rigging, allergy pills (not that you can't find these things in Mexico, we're just not up for an ass-rape in terms of loco prices!)
Last night we went out on the town at our favorita live music spot "La Encantada". Let me tell you... this place! This place is like an island of culture!
- The art - stuff you'd see in beautiful galleries;
- The music - any music festival would turn green with envy;
- The food - foodies beware we're talking cuisine with a snoot accent;
- The people - locals! Not gringos! Other than yours truly - of course;
- The music - have I mentioned the music?
All night Leonardo kept repeating "I can't wait to leave so I can come back here!" The more we return to the same digs in La Paz, the more we connect with la gente and the more we fall in love with this town. The people are so warm, and friendly, and welcoming, and non obtrusive, and how can you go wrong in a relationship when you basically cannot fully communicate? No arguments there right?
Yes. This is beginning to look a lot like home!
From now on, I shall be called Maria!
