For he's a jolly good fellow. Happy Birthday Ron


What a day! We took the dingy and motored over to La Cruz for the day. La Cruz has a beautiful Marina nessled in a funky little town, but amazingly enough there is great live music at Pylios and Anna Banana's. (Previous pictures were posted) Daz stayed for the seminar on crossing the Pacific, but Ron and I bailed out to keep from falling asleep. The eyes began to close at the part where everyone opted for matching teashirts with our names on them. Ron wants to steer clear of the mass crossing, as these folks have small boats and some will inevitably get into trouble. If you are closest to the problem you are obligated to help them out, get the picture? 
There was beer, there was tequila, good food and "the cake".

A good time was had by all


After lunch we wandered through the village to Anna Banana's and bumped into Captain Debbie. We met a great couple from Wisconsin who had just come from the airport to La Cruz and were in search of a place to watch the super bowl. Love those cheese heads and really hope the Packers win.

Ron and Captain Debbie. We made her wear the B-Day hat.

The CAKE!
Carrot Cake, Ron's favorite.

The cake had 1/2 cup date sugar to sweeten it and the fresh carrots and pinapple did the rest. The frosting was lite cream cheese sweetened with 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar and I added Rum and fresh orange zest, along with a touch of vanilla and cinnamon.

The gang at Anna Banana's sang a rousing happy birthday to Ron, in Spanish and then the tequila flowed like water. We were a bit tippsey but then, we were celabrating!

The sunset was awesome over the bay as we returned from our day of fun.
