Updates from Zijuantenejo

My stay in this town is wrapping up and I'm sad to go but it's time. The trip down here was great but as usual, little to no wind. Erin, a good friend of mine from Mazatlan, joined me for the passage from Barra to Ztown. Unfortunately, we were suppose to stop in Buffadero Bluffs but the swells killed that plan, thus we did over 200 miles straight. Erin was a great addition and hope that she joins me further along in the trip.

Timo and I originally planned on heading over to the S. Pacific but some finances came into play and we thought it better to keep working south this year. The S. Pacific or the Canal is on the radar for next spring. We're heading south on Saturday, next stop Acapulco! From there, we'll hit one or two more stops before leaving Mexico.

Some great friends from CA just left, the Miller's were here for a week. The entire family for 7 days...Kate, Christine and Steve! They told me they had a blast but I'm not sure if Christine will be returning. I took her to the local market and let's just say she didn't enjoy the environment too much. No one got sick and we had a blast. Zip lining through the trees, sailing for 2 days, hooking up w/a 30lb yellow fin tuna (but after a 45min fight, we lost it at the boat!) and an amazing Easter dinner with a view overlooking the Bay. We couldn't have asked for a better week (except for the market visit).

Anyway, I'll try to add some more stories/pics but that's it for now. Hope this update finds everyone well!
