Visit to Isla Cedros

We left the Tortugas and headed over to Isla Cedros for the night, anchoring in the channel between it and Isla Jesusita. After securing the boats, we all got in the dinghy and went exploring. Along the shore of the peninsula, we found a cute little pulperia set back from a rocky beach in the midst of a carefully manicured hillside. Ruby tried to make friends with the locals like Mancha and (no joke) Killer but was not very successful. The ladies minding the shop urged us to keep a watchful eye out for any banditos as there are reputedly some in the area. On our way back, we swung by the ferry landing at Paquera but were not tempted to land.


Later, Wayne treated us to a homemade dinner aboard S/V Learnativity! As the sun set in a pool of fire, we all sat outside and watched. Then, with the brilliant phosphorescence lighting our way, we dinghied over to our neighbor for a delicious dinner and (good wine and) stimulating conversation with Wayne, followed by a "Tron Style" dinghy ride with a trail of daylight-bright phosphorescence!
