Following the 80 degree water heading to P.V.

Wrapping up our stay here in La Paz. It has been really fun. It is an interesting Town with lots of nice local and transient folks. We have Jamie Rosman on board as crew and will make the crossing of the Sea tomorrow. I will turn the SPOT back on so you can follow as you like. I will try to post some pictures of our stay here in La Paz later on.

Today Jamie and I spent 3 hours in immigration because I noticed my VISA was only good for 30 days, I had asked for 60 days. And Jamie didn't have any paperwork at all. So technically I was here with an expired VISA and Jamie was illegal. We are now "Schooled" and will not to leave the airport immigration without the proper VISA. The official gave me half the time that I asked for and I didn't know to check or question what he did. Before I left to go over to Immigration I radioed the other women who had also traveled by plane the same day I did and asked her to check her VISA. The official had again only given her half the time she had asked for. So she came along with us. Jamie had come down to La Paz via crossing the boarder in San Diego then catching a plane from TJ to La Paz and did not have any paperwork at all. So he had two forms to fill out. Again the immigration officer said don't leave the airport until all your paperwork is in order and it's your responsibility to make sure it is in order. Lesson learned. For me it was a 236 peso lesson and I think it was double that for Jamie. So from now on I will go for a 180 day VISA and not be intimidated by the guy with the stamp.
