to talk on the phone all night (joke)! After dinner, Benny Junior helps you back into his 35 foot pirogue and travels at lightning speed back to your boat. Cruisers get used to these southern islands and the security issues, and usually eat a meal at noon and don't get off their boats after dark. After we ate, Benny Senior took me into his home so I could post the blog that you might have read on Sunday night or Monday. His wireless wasn't working, so I made myself at home in his living room
and was able to get the job done. Thanks Jeanne and Doug for the memorable dinner and evening!
On Monday morning, Shane, our boat boy dropped by to ask Jeanne and Doug if they'd be needing his services. They hired him to transport them in between the Pitons to take a look at the view. We are tied to one of seven mooring balls at a prime snorkeling location and didn't want to untie and lose our place. Jeanne and Doug then had Shane take them to shore to meet up with Dixon, their new found friend and taxi driver.
Yesterday, today, and tomorrow will be taken up with chores and cleanup. We are catching up on some maintenance that we have been avoiding, engine checks, laundry, grocery run, and dusting out the spare bunk for our new guests, Ron and Judy, who arrive on Thursday. We're paid up on the mooring until Saturday morning. A week is just 80 EC (30.00 US), a far cry from the $25-30 US a day, that people want in the US, BVI, and Bermuda.
I'm sending this blog through the Ham Radio, because these last moorings are in a secluded spot where wifi is sparse, so if we don't blog every day, consider it a day off of the Ham radio aggravation for us!
