8 37.263 N, 83 09.175 W, Golfito
Right now we are sitting in the cockpit, under our sunshade, on a mooring in Golfito harbor. The rain is pouring down, thunder and lightening surround us, as we sip our happy hour drinks. The rain is so thick we can not longer see the harbor entrance or where we were walking in town, checking out the shops. Rich counted 6-8 seconds between lightening and subsequent thunder. Wait, this last one was only 1 SECOND! That was too damn close! The sunshade is filling with water so I go out and try to empty the pockets of water. The dingy is hanging from one of the spinnaker halyards off the side of the boat and it is collecting water as well.
----- this blog entry was temporarily interrupted ----
I had to stop the blog entry to put some of the electronics including the iPad into the anti-static bag and the microwave until the storm passed, and until after dinner and, well, two episodes of Boston Legal. The storm has passed, the rain has stopped.
But now it is time for bed, so, I will end this entry.
Good night
