Belén’s French Bakery Boat

Andy turned me on to this blog about a family sailing up and down the coast of México.  Of course we will religiously start following it because it is a dream of ours to do this some day.  Note to México, please clean up your drug wars so perusing your coast will still be appealing in the future.  If you don’t we will just have to do the Caribbean instead.

When I read the current post from the family, a couple of things stood out to me.

First, the cat’s name is Cortez…how cute is that?

Second, they are mooring in Barra de Navidad, a place I have heard a lot about from a friend who has visited there often, but despite our close proximity while living in Guadalajara in 2003, we never visited…shame on us.  Perhaps we can do a day trip during our upcoming trip to México in May.

Third, um, there is a FRENCH BAKERY BOAT that delivers pastries to the visitor boats and the boat’s name is Belén!  Kismet, I say!
