Stone Island

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
After leaving the marina on Tuesday we had a nice 2 hour sail down to Isla Piedra aka Stone Island.  Its really not an island but is the southern side of the breakwater for Mazatlan's old harbor.  It offers good protection from northely winds and waves and has miles of sandy beaches along with the ever present beach palapas.

Yep, we finally got out. It wasn’t easy but we did it. Oh, it was easy enough backing out of the slip. The trouble began earlier when we were thinking about all of the good times and good friends (2 & 4 legged) we have  there. We have made Mazatlan our home for 5 seasons and you get comfortable when you stay somewhere that long and it’s hard to say goodbye.
