Jan 22, Wednesday, Play night

We got up as usual and listened to the net, did our devotions then went out for breakfast. A place was recommended that charges 70 pesos ($3.74) for anything on the menu, all meals come with coffee and orange juice. Renee’ had two eggs over medium and a blueberry pancake with bacon, and I had Huevos Rancheros with sausage. Both pretty big breakfasts.

After Breakfast we walked to the marine parts store looking for drink holders, did not find what we were looking for. Renee’ headed to Walmart, and I went back to the boat.

The project for the day is to clean up the couple of loose wires under the TV in the salon. That project started at about 9:30 or so, and I finished up at about 5 pm. Everything is working, all the extra wires have been removed the appearance is much cleaner and I like the way it looks.

After working and walking, we went and took showers and then left overs for dinner and off to the play!
So there were four 10 minute plays, no sets (to speak of), and only 2 or 3 actors for each play. But the best part was meeting the people who sat next to us in the theater. It was a couple who had not bought tickets, and showed up at the theater and got the seats from some people who did not show up. Jim and Maria Kennedy, they are Atlantic Ocean Kayakers from Ireland, and are here for about 3 months avoiding winter in Ireland. He is in training for a big kayak race in Canada in July. They appeared to be maybe 10 years younger than. us. We told them about having met Ed Gillette (the guy from Wild Blue) who kayaked from Southern California to Hawaii in 1987, that we met on the way down the coast of Baja. Jim recognized the name and wants to meet Ed. Who of course just recently left to fly back to the states. We told Jim to listen to the net on channel 22 in the morning and ask for Wild Blue to get in touch with him.

So, tomorrow we are leaving La Paz, not sure when we will be back again. But, since we are headed north from here, and we eventually have to go south, we will be back. Yesterday, the boat got polished, and I took some pictures, they are below.
