We left Mantanchen Bay Wednesday morning and had a rolly trip to Chacala - about 20 miles away. Just as we were pulling into the bay, we saw a whale about 100 yards off the boat. We've seen several whales so far, but that was the closest so far...
Now we're in Chacala Bay. It's a beautiful little anchorage. Everyone bow and stearn anchors to 1) give people more room, and 2) keep your bow into the swells as they come in. Chacala is not a big town by any means, but it's a nice mix of remoteness and luxury. We can sit on the beach under a palapa and have a bucket of beer, lunch, or dinner. There are a few small tienda's here - you can get about 80% of anything you might need. We went to a women's house for dinner last night. On Thursday nights, she makes a special home made Mexican dinner for the first 20 people that sign up - she charges $5/plate. We went with "Ketching Up" and "Monju". We're going to spend one more day here before heading off to Punta Mita or La Cruz tomorrow. At that point we'll be in Banderas Bay and will be changing time zones again to Central time.
We have LIMITED internet access here so we've been able to read our e-mail, but not post any pictures to our blog - so you'll just have to wait a bit longer to see our pictures of the blue footed boobies!!!
