"For the truth is that I already know as much about my fate as I need to know. The day will come when I will die. So the only matter of consequence before me is what I will do with my allotted time. I can remain on shore, paralyzed with fear, or I can raise my sails and dip and soar in the breeze."--Richard Bode

Friendly Ensenada
Today we registered at the marina and cleared into Mexico at the Immigration office. Everyone is so friendly and helpful, of course they already know my voice from listening to our radio dialogue for vessel assist. We met 4 boat crews at immigration that are traveling south, all commented on our inbound tow. We also learned that the weather has changed and there is a storm off the coast Fri, Sat and Sun. So we will wait and sail to Turtle Bay on Monday/Tuesday if the weather clears. Again we are lucky as Bernardo who delivered us so gently into a slip has a brother Leonardo who cleans fuel tanks and filters fuel. Tomorrow....Rick gets to smell diesel again. To treat ourselves, tonight we went to Mission Brewery and had an excellent IPA and Stout. So let it be known that Mexico isn't just about pale ales!
