May 16 – 18, 2013
Isla Carmen is a large island off of Loreto, and Puerto Ballandra is a west-facing anchorage due East from Loreto. We caught back up with the kid boats but then stayed an extra night after they all left, because after the rush of Puerto Escondido we weren’t in a hurry to move on.

Logbook – May 17, 2013 (Puerto Ballandra)
Daily Notes
-
- Family snorkel
- Met Bill and Sue form Sun Baby Too, told us about “Just a Minute” blog – Lagoon 380, 2008 Sea of Cortez. Lots of info not in the guidebook
- Get together on beach with drinks and snacks. Met 3 Hour Tour & other boats. Including another former NG employee.
(Edit: I don’t think we ever did look up that blog. The “former NG employee” was a boat that later became famous from boat catastrophe crossing eastward from the Marquesas back to Mexico. I’m drawing a blank, but will come back when I remember.)
