Last few days in San Diego


It's been a treat for us to be in a marina with stable concrete docks and no wind and surge, it's a very nice marina, very well run and clean with great facilities. We also have the use of the pool and spa at the Sheraton. Which we have been taking advantage of.

There are lots of other Ha Ha boats around us, a very mixed bag of humanity, some obviuosly experienced and some less so. It's interesting for me to see other peoples concept of their "ideal " cruising boat, ours tends towards the primitive end of the spectrum, most of the Canadian boats are steel, most of the SoCal boats are fibreglass production boats, everyone has been very nice and Liam hasn't thrown anymore eggs.

The festivities/activities start tommorow, including a skippers meeting and a Halloween party, which explains why Zorro showed up.

Then on Monday we are off once more, next stop Turtle Bay, about 280 nm south of San Diego, I'm ready to get moving again.

It wass nice to get a visit from my niece Christina, who I haven't seen in years and who in fact I haven't seen very much of over the last 20 or so years, she seems pretty settled in her San Diego life, and Ho Chung her boyfriend is a very nice guy, smart too.
