Ensenada

Sitting out a storm in port, cruising the town running errands, basically eating and drinking our way through the streets of Ensenada.

November 18th: Immigration office, boat maintenance, 30mil Racor for the Mexican diesel, new fuel filter, scrub, prime and paint the block to prevent rust, $7 teak jerry rail, fish market, fish tacos, churros and cold beer.

November 19th: Start of the Baja 1000 from Ensenada to La Paz began. Thousands of people converged on the streets and the arroyo for the start of the race. It truly is a family event for the locals, everybody comes together and sets up a picnic style vantage at the start.

November 20th: The 100th anniversary of the revolution, so you could imagine the parades and celebration here in town. Jessica made a delicious stew, Stephen and Lulu from Siempre Sabado joined us for dinner. Smoked Marlin with cream cheese and crackers was the appetizer.

November 21st
