Dear Bloggers:
I see you are back for more….what a gluten for punishment. Seriously!
Good news! Bad news!
Splash day was Saturday at 12:00 noon. Don took her back over to the Marina. Our plan was to leave Tuesday (today) and start heading down the south coast and on to Salinas, BUT woke to really bad weather, so we are still in Puerto Real. Our boat P2S looks beautiful on the outside, but was and is a mess on the inside. When they fiber glassed it simply got the dust everywhere. We are still wiping down the entire boat. The only part of the boat that was semi clean was our bedroom, which was nice. I will keep you posted about trip as it happens…………..
One day when Don and I were a little bored we went back to Rincon and found out that we could ride horses. He wasn’t as crazy about the idea as I was, but he agreed to go back with me the next day. My brother, Dan always asks me, what do you do all day when you aren’t working on the boat? Well, here is one thing we did.
When I was 10-17 years old I had a horse named Sally. She was a great horse, black with a white star and four white stockings. So I love horses and loved to ride. But I haven’t ridden a horse in several years. Now Don doesn’t share the love that I hold for horses, but he is a good sport. A while back we went down to Rincon, also on the west coast where the surfers go and it has a beautiful lighthouse. I told you about this in an earlier blog. While we visited we found a place to ride horses on the beach, so Don took me back. It was a 2 hour trail ride. The horses were teamed up well with the riders and the guide was amazing. She took the time for basic training to review the dos and don’ts. We walked and trotted along the Faro lighthouse (I had the lighthouse in the other blog) and rode on the spectacular beach as well as some trails in the forest. The scenery was amazing.
Since we had visited Rincon earlier on our own (where the surfers go), it was nice to see it in a different perspective. Don didn’t have near as much fun as I did, but didn’t complain.
Until next time…..Hasta la vista
Don and Janis s/v Plane to Sea
