We had three cruise ships in port Wednesday. It was a lovely day, first in a long while.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

With Colin’s help I was able to climb up and take the following photos. The dirt path is a bit slippery for me to attempt on my own.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The Norwegian Bliss.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Still two ships left at dock. This huge, many ton piece of concrete has been here on top of the various rocks that were used to build the berm. So ugly.<\/p><\/div>\n

The work started on “my” site last Monday. It is going to be a slow process. We are dealing with people who work where and when they can and most importantly when they want to. So sometimes after paying them for that days work they don’t come back for a few days. When they need more pesos they will start work again. Jimmy is a great worker and so is his current helper.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

I know this will work out.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

And our compound just across the road.<\/p><\/div>\n

We are in a hold position waiting for him complete phase one. Once he does we will pay the end of that phase. The next part of the project depends on when he is ready to work again.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

He worked until dark Wednesday night.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The Carnival Panorama heading out to sea.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The Norwegian ship stopping at the shipping channel entrance so that the passengers can enjoy the setting sun.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Last ship in port. \u00a0In the foreground, behind that monster piece of concrete, you can see the Playa Sur Embarcadero. Between the cruise ship and our pier are two tuna boats getting ready to head out. That is how close we are to our transportation to Mazatlan via the water taxis as they are sometimes called. The last lancha leaves the Isla at 6:30PM. \u00a0We also have another ‘main’ Embarcadero that is open 24\/7, about a 5 minute drive away.\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The Holland America Koningsdam had to do a multi point turn in order to sail out.<\/p><\/div>\n

So why am I creating this special space? Simply because I need to see the sunset every night. My soul needs this vista, this inspiration. Would you like to help me create a name for my new space? Could it be as simple as ‘Contessa’s Corner’? A special friend suggested ‘El Cielo de la Condesa’ (Contessa’s Sky )! Or El cielito de Contessa ( Contessa’s little heaven )? How about El Corazon ( heart ) de Contessa? What do you think? Suggestions are very welcome.<\/p>\n
