ARICA, CHILE

Coming into our first port in Chile we got quite a wildlife show. We saw whales, dolphins jumping and tons of jelly fish. One of my favorite fellow residents Basia captured it so well on her blog, see link below.

Town was quaint and nice and easy to walk around. Port provided a nice send off with Music and Dancers, it was to celebrate our 100 days of Sailing!!

Got to love a place that sells shirts saying " Where the heck is Yap? " Colonia ( population 3,100 ) is the Capital and Harbor town of Yap State ( population 11,600 ) one of four states in the Federated States of Micronesia. We are in the Pacific Ocean or Philippine Sea just north of the equator, Papua New Guinea and Australia.
