We had a cold snap here too. The past couple of weeks it never got
over 75 and was always cloudy. Burrrr... It even rained two days
ago!

We are finaly back to normal temps, upper 80's and sunny.

Just after Christmas we were at anchor in Tenacatita bay, commonly
known as "The Aquarium" because of all the great rocks to the west of
the bay where the fish flourish. The Mexican locals love to vacation
on this stretch of beach and it was a treat to intermingle with them
and watch them play on the playa.

What they (the locals) didn't know was that about a hundred pelicans
had figured out that this year the aquarium was bursting with life
under the water. We spent days sitting under the palapas watching the
families playing in the water fighting off the pelicans who were
trying to catch their dinner. The pelicans were dive bombing into the
water everywhere, inches away from people who were just trying to cool
off. We heard a lot of screams and men trying to drive them off but
the pelicans never hurt anyone and never went away.

What a show.

Personal opinion is that the world doesn't really need VA Beach...much
overrated and very dumpy in places....we avoid it....

I remember standing on the pier at St. Pete FL one day and there was a
flock of pelicans...maybe about 30 of them, just hanfig out. Being a
bird type of person, I walked over to have a chat (those who know me
will tell you that I do indeed talk to birds)..thisfisherman started
yelling at me that they were dangerous and that I would get hurt.
pfffttt..they sidled up to me and made their squaky noises...they
weren't averse to me petting them, either...I didn't have anything to
feed them and probably wouildn't have because it was a fishing area and
getting fisher people angry is not a good thing...when I walked away,
they followed for a bit and then decided since I wasn't good for food
they'd go back and harass the guy that thought they were dangerous...
