Yesterday Jerry and I took a 6 peso bus ride into Barra de Navidad, this is the small town on the south side of the bay. There is a anchorage inside the lagoon, along with a small marina, we chose not to anchor inside due to the shallow spots inside the entry. We still wanted to see the small town of Barra, there is not much here, very touristy with restaurants, tourist shops, and a nice malecon to walk along to see the surfers.

Sea turtle eggs, sea turtles are in the endangered species act, there are conservation programs all over Mexico to protect the eggs in secure nurseries and release them after they hatch. This will ensure the eggs gets to full maturity and safely to the water. |

I love taking pictures of the colorful streets in Mexico |
After having a great time in Barra and provisioning in Melaque we had a great dinghy launch off the beach none of our groceries got wet, we decided to stay in for the night and I made some great chef salads
We are planning on leaving this morning for either Bahia Santiago which is 24 miles or Bahia Manzanillo, to anchor in front of a small town of Las Hadas which right around the corner. Either way we should have a great 6 hour sail, according to the weather this morning there should be 15 to 20 knots of wind....Happy Sailing!
