It is already a hot, humid day. This morning there was a dark band of cloud over the bay just dripping with humidity, as I am as I write this. Not my favourite weather but sure beats snow.
I chose to defrost the fridge today...my worst job as I have to hang into this box in the counter to clean it. It is cool in there but no matter how I try to work it. I can't fit into the fridge.
Naturally we are beside a large boat which was running its air this morning...I was envious.
At this time of year the bay is a place of comings and goings and I don't mean only the tides. One day there are 36 boats and the next 16. We watch each incoming boat to see if it is a new boat or someone we have met before. Cruising is like RVing...you do tend to meet the same people year after year. That is fun, as is meeting all those who are headed to Panama, the Marquesas or somewhere into the wild blue yonder ...it truly is the wild blue yonder when you are on a boat.
I know that I have commented on boats with kids but I remain in awe. A Canadian boat came in with 3 kids on board...so what you might say...one is only a few months old. I watched them go into shore and no one had on a life vest. If I had that 2 month old it would be in a PFD like Patches has...such confidence blows me away...impresses me to no end.
Yesterday we spent an entire day lazing on the boat...Bob took Patches into shore twice and I went for a swim. Then I was in bed at just after 7 pm!! Doing nothing really exhausts me!!
I am sorry that I have no photos but Bob is the guy with the cameras! He took a neat video of the boat but I cannot upload it...I left it uploading for an hour and not much had happened after an hour. When we return to Barra I shall try to upload it.
No exciting stories to tell...I am truly thankful for that but it is boring reading for you.
