After leaving San Carlos in mid-October we headed straight for Bahia Conception.  The water and air were both 80 degrees and the water was flat in the anchorage. Perfect! So we stayed and Diane worked on varnish most mornings. We can understand why people come here and stay for months. There is so much to do here!

Then we headed south for La Paz. We were in San Juanico for about 6 days-one of our favorite spots. Then did quick stops in Loreto and Isla Carmen. We were in Puerto Escondido for 3 days, mostly for internet and laundry. Agua Verde was very crowded so we only stayed one night but then settled in a while at Los Gatos. The anchorages with no goods or services tend to be less much busy. Before arriving in La Paz we had to stop again at Isla San Francisco and Puerto Ballandra for more hiking. We arrived in La Paz the Friday before Thanksgiving.
