The Music of La Cruz - Part 1



 Hello friends,

Its been a while since we updated the blog.  So sorry, life got in the way.  We have decided to live here, in La Cruz, for a while.  At least until we decide its time to move on.

We separated for a while.  Neil lived in town and Sharon stayed on the boat.  But we found we missed each other too much and decided we couldn't live without each other.

One thing we really like about living here is the music.  There are several really good musicians and we thought we'd give you a taste.  

The following is a guy named Lobo. He is very popular here and has been mentioned in a few novels too.  He plays flaminco music, which we are really getting to like.  Hope the video does it justice:


Geo is a fellow boater who lives on his catamaran on our dock.  He is a gringo, but he plays flaminco music as well.  He plays a mean violin.  His band is called Luna Rumba.  We hope you like it:
 

Just so you know, not all the music is flaminco.  These guys are called Deep River and they play rock and roll.  This is just a sampling.  Sorry the video is so dark.   It was filmed here, at the marina restaurant/bar.
 

We will provide some more music samplings next update.

This is a short video of our favorite beach.  We hope to have move/better videos later.  Especially if we can catch the hump back playing again.  They put on an amazing show for us the other day, jumping straight out, two at a time, and slapping their tales, etc.  Next time, we hope to have the camera.

This is a short video we took one day we went out to dinner:
 

Its high season and the demand on the marina internet is too high, we have to leave the boat and go somewhere where there is wifi to post here, so it could be a while before our next update.  Once summer gets here, we should be ok on the boat again.

So, adios from paradise...
