We checked into Guatemala at the mouth of the Rio Dulce, in Livingston, on May 28th. We navigated the river to the lagoon by Texan Bay Marina and "hid out" there for four days (three nights) while we waited for the rains from tropical storm
Arthur to pass. We sailed through El Golfete to the town of Rio Dulce on May 31st and we checked into "The Jungle Lodge and Marina at Tijax" on June 1. We did some preliminary settling in and some sightseeing and moved to Nana Juana Marina on June 22nd. We closed up the boat and left for the US and our tour of the upper West Coast and Midwest on June 30th. We had great visits with friends and family for over seven weeks and returned to Guatemala and the boat on August 20th. The detailed account of those adventures appears on "The Adventures of S/V Jupiter's Smile" blog. What follows, at least for now, are accounts of what we experience while we are here, docked in Rio Dulce.
With our new sunshade we keep cooler (not the same as cool) and protect the deck from the tropical sun.
We are side-tied to the dock at Nana Juana. This photo may heighten your interest for our next post which will highlight Nana Juana.
For those of you that have been following our previous adventures, yes, that is S/V Tisha Baby right behind us!
