Crossing to Baja

Image
We finally crossed to Baja. We left at 2:00 am in the dark. It was 73 nautical miles. When we left there was dolphins waving us off. I don't really know what happened when we left, because I was sleeping,  just ask my parents. But I had to get up. I was kinda excited. I told my mom that I was going to wear this, this and this on my top. This, this and this on my bottom. And this, this and this on my feet. I was afraid I was going to be freezing, but Dad came below and laughed his head off. I do remember waking up from my sleep and my Mom was dreaming about clamshells, so many glorious clamshells. Weird!! Then I went up above, wearing less then I thought about. I clipped into our safety harnesses, two actually and I sucked up Dad's warmth. Finally, the sun rose, it was beautiful. I loved it! It was so pretty. I could have bathed in that moment forever. We were able to sail for a bit, but motor sailed for most of the time. So far we have seen a bunch of sea turtles,
