Guaymas, Sonora (II) [México]

The ferry leaves today!!!!!

After waiting for 7 days (which really isn't the worst thing in the world), the ferry is going to run.  The weather has been good on shore, but 30-40 knot winds at sea have been causing problems.  The "northwesterner" winds I'm told; I'm also told that come with the changing cycles of the moon.

By now, I know all the workers on the dock by name and I joke that it's the curse of the gringos or that they just don't want me to leave Guaymas...  If they don't want me to leave, all they have to do is invite me to their house, I say; I'm happy to stay in Guaymas... they don't need to cancel the ferry.  The guys that know me laugh, the new guys aren't sure how to handle a gringo that jokes in Spanish.

Now, to Baja California to visit close friends and eat LOTS of shrimp; 'tis the season!!!
