Onward to the south

Hope your sunday was very productive

We have decided to spend 1 more day on the mainland before heading out to the Channel Islands. Port San Luis beckons and we will sail there tomorrow. Morro Bay was very interesting in that we never saw the famour rock due to fog. Thay did have a alvacado and marguarita festival in our honor and I wonder what Port San Luis has in store. Seemed a shame to not see this part of the California coast while we are here. The difference between even small towns like Morro bay and the isolated anchoraqges makes you appreciate both for what they offer. oo much of both I would expect would be missing the flavor of this wonfderful world. One area we will miss gladly is the LA basin and all of its maddness. By staying in the islands and offshore our next big stop (internet and stores etc) will be San Diego.
Morro Bay is a combination of working port and tourist attraction, as it seems are all of the small ports along the coast. I am glad that they have found a way to survive our economy and smaller fish harvests. Today was washing clothes, reprovisioning and meeting another HaHa participant (Steve on Joya).
San Miguel Island should be our first stop offshore and then on the Santa Cruz island. San Miguel is administered by the Parks Deparrtment and we should get our permission to land tomorrow. Before tghe islands we will be passing Point Conception, known for high winds and called the Cape Horn of California.
So, so long for now and I do not expect to be back posting for some time as there is no wifi out there. Next time pictures
I really appreciated the birthday greetings, where are all the cakes you promised. Call gthe coast guard and they will deliver.
Aloha and great sundays
