Ensenada to Bahia Santa Maria Picassa Pictures

A fast (for us) 400 miles in 2 days down to Bahia de Tortugas – a small fishing village, in the Baja desert. Zebulon (our wind generator) is happy with the 20-30 knot winds, flat waters despite the winds in the bay though. Frank and I have heavy eyelids tonight. Good speed makes for little shut-eye. We’ll stay a day or two to catch up in Algebra. We saw many happy albatross soaring, a jumping marlin, a dead swordfish and numerous sheerwaters. We were squided last night (found 14 little dead ones all over the deck), crime scene ink spot photos will be sent when we have internet. Didn’t think to bring squid spot remover…maybe baking soda will work? Wind has blown up enough sand in the sky to make some spectacular glowie pink sunsets.
