Day 4 - Tuesday, March 7, 2017

L o r e t o

Weather: 76° F/ 24 ° C, Partly Cloudy

"Consider the subtleness of the sea; how its most dreaded creatures glide under water, unapparent for the most part, and treacherously hidden beneath the loveliest tints of azure...Consider all this; and then

turn to this green, gentle, and most docile earth; consider them both, the sea and the land; and do you not find a strange analog}' to something in yourself?

—Herman Melville, Moby-Dick

On the Streets of Laredo Loreto... Welcome to sunny Loreto, host to the biggest JoCo concert in the history of central Baja. Today we take this town by storm, from 11 am on Tuesday until Wednesday afternoon at 3 pm. Events kick off with a Food Festival at 3pm on Tuesday, followed by an epic concert in the Plaza Publica. Our great vessel is so mighty that it cannot fit into the city marina: tenders will connect the Westerdam to the marina all day and night. We're here all night, so grab some food and drink, get comfortable and prepare for a concert of biblical proportions.

KNOW YOUR SHIP SILHOUETTES!

The Westerdam; aka Home Sweet Home

The Flying Dutchman

The Titanic (unlikely to spot)

Uh-oh.

"CAPTAIN'S" LOG: THE SEA OF CORTEZ March 6, 2017. Easterly winds. Calm Sea. Our cruise continues unabated, with minimal

interference from hostile marine life— for now. Today we put in at Loreto to replenish the ship's supplies of hardtack and Vermouth. I hope the good citizens of the town understand

the scale of the madness that is about to descend upon them. So far there have been remarkably few instances of scurvy, although this could change as we cruise deeper into the

Sea of Cortez.

TH THANKS, AS ALWAYS, TO OUR KIND SPONSORS

ERRATA

The Editorial Staff deeply regrets the

following error in the March 6 edition:

[1J On page 4, Acre, an important port in

modern-day Israel, was mistakenly

referred to as "Accra,'* the capital of

Ghana. The historian has been sacked.

[2] That shirt with those shoes?
