Ship's Log:
Our prison visit went without a hitch. San Lucas was a truly amazing visit, a visit that will remain with us all for a long time. Seeing the remains of a prison that once held up to 200 inmates in conditions that in some cases were appalling moved us all. Messages of dispair written in multiple layers on cell walls, solitary confinment in sun baked concrete tubes, all now becoming over grown with bush or destroyed by termites. It was a window back in time showing how cruel we can be to each other. All enjoyed the visit and we had the gaurds wife and child out to see the boat.
Departed at 1115hrs and were anchored off of P.A. at 1230hrs where Wendy´s father picked her up. See you Wendy, all our love goes with you, already you are dearly missed.
