Subject: Hi from Ensenada Grande

We are having a wonderful time! We have hooked up with four other “kid boats” each with 2 kids aged range 7 to 14. The boys are at the beach right now with all the kids playing capture the flag. We took everyone on Exodus today on a day trip up to swim with the Sea Lions again. Good times!
Love you all,
-D.
