Sailing with a Vancouver 28

Ferry to Salvador

Another trip on the little ferry to Salvador. Today, with a lower tide, the coral reef off Mar Grande was exposed.

Our visit to Salvador was to shop and run a few errands. Günter needed new bearings for his wind generator. We noticed this building dating from 1912. In an early post I commented on how many buildings were in need of restoration. Today we were told that many buildings and vacant blocks in lower Salvador are being bought by investors fro restoration of redevelopment.
