After hanging out around the islands near Puerto Escondido,
a trip into Loreto, and participating in Loreto Fest (in PE), we
headed to Juncalito in the bay just north of Puerto Escondido
where we stayed for a few days.

We kept waiting for the weather to improve and
the water to warm up, but it never really did.
The weather was very different from previous years.
It was warmer earlier (including the water),
but then got cold again. There were more clouds and
more and stronger winds - lots of strong night time westerlies.
We worked our way north on Baja before crossing
the Sea of Cortez to San Carlos where we were hauling the boat:
Our first stop was San Juanico:
