About Angk

My husband and I lived aboard MV DESERT VENTURE and cruised for most of thirteen years. We traveled the west coast of North America, between Juneau, Alaska, and Barra de Navidad, MX. This blog is about living aboard full time, voyages, boat maintenance, new places, and meeting old and new friends.

Cruising Mexico – Sea of Cortez

We crossed from Mazatlan to La Paz about a week ago. The crossing was good with a few uncomfortable hours in the night – the worse time to be rolling, but Bruce sorted it out and we were fine.

This is a quick note while I still have bars on the Banda Ancha aircard.

We have been in the Sea of Cortez a few days. Actually, I can’t remember as we have been busy going and going. We were in Puerto Escondido for a couple days and got into Loreto for a brief visit. We left Puerto Escondido yesterday to get out of the harbor before Loreto Fest started. A very fun and busy place if you like lots of events, and busy-ness. 🙂

We are traveling with MV AARON SAWYER. We should be anchored in a bay, Puerto Ballandra,  at the northern tip of Isla Carmen before too long.

We were in Honeymoon Cove on Isla Danzante last night. It was totally quiet.  There were about a gazillion stars in the sky, and we could hear very large sea animals in the water around us. Very eerie  – but not scary.

The sea is turquoise blue, the sky is a pale blue, the water is warm, and the sun is shining.

All is good where we are! More details and pictures soon.

Meanwhile we are Cruising Mexico – in the Sea of Cortez!
