Stuck in San Diego

Still here in San Diego! If you have to be delayed anywhere, I guess it’s not such a bad place to be. The weather today is a bit cooler and cloudier than yesterday. All of our other dock friends have left. They are all on their way to exciting destinations. One boat is on their way to Hawaii and the others are on their way to Turtle Bay and/or Cabo. We are the only ones left on the guest dock. I feel a little left out that we are not on our way too. Hopefully we will be leaving today around dusk. We’d like to get to Ensenada early tomorrow morning and check in and get our Visa’s. I know we are picking up a couple of new crewmembers while we are there as well. So keep you fingers crossed, all gets done today so we can leave!

 

My friend, Marilyn

Yesterday was a great day here. The sun was shining and it was warm with a gentle breeze blowing. It was also great because I got to visit my college roommate who just so happens to live in La Jolla! She came and whisked me away in her Porsche Cayenne with her two adorable little dogs and treated me to lunch. It was so fun to see her and get caught up! The last time we visited each other is when my daughter Lauren was a couple months old…so, almost 30 years. Seeing Marilyn was the best part of yesterday. 

Later that evening Rick, Jeff and I went to dinner at the Kona Kai resort. Peggy was busy on the computer with paperwork that she wanted to get done so did not join us.  After dinner…you got it…we watched another mystery movie. Jeff and I were the only ones who did not see really any of it. Rick and Peggy were diehards and watched it through.

This morning we all drove to a cute little coffeehouse called ‘The Living Room’ off Rosecrans and had breakfast. Peggy was able to use the Wi-Fi and get some more important details completed on the computer. After a delicious breakfast, we drove to West Marine, Home Depot, and to a few other marine stores. What fun! :/

Jeff’s brother John stopped by for a visit just as Jeff and Rick were off to do some more errands. As soon as they return, Peggy and I will go and get provisions. THEN….hopefully THEN, we can go!!

I will miss our little sea lion friends and hope to see more of them along with other sea mammals on our way!

The next time you hear from us, it should be from Mexico.
