Superbowl Sunday in La Paz
Not much goings-on to discuss about yesterday… most everything was closed because it was Sunday. So we spent much of the day planning what general direction we wanted to head once we got to mainland Mexico. After getting tired of sitting around at the hotel we headed down to the beach to dip our toes in the Sea of Cortes.
After a couple hours of lazing around on the beach we decided to walk down the beach to the bar and enjoy a cerveza… while watching a bit of the Superbowl in Español.
The ferry sails at 3pm this afternoon and we’re supposed to be at the port two hours prior to departure. We’ll have to go through Mexico customs before we will be allowed to wait in line for cargo boarding. The ferry ride is 6 hours, so we’ll be arriving in Topolobampo at 9pm. Unfortunately, this is the only time the boat makes the trip, so there is no way to avoid arriving after sundown and having to ride at night. We’re not sure what, if any, hotel options there will be in Topolobampo. Luckily, Los Mochis is not far away from Topolobampo, so it wont be a long night ride if we need to ride out of Topolobampo.
Well, I’m off to make my morning pilgrimage to the panaderia… and then I’m off to stock up on snacks for the ferry ride.
