We left Great Harbour and did a quick detour around to the Bubble Pool on
Jost Van Dyke. It is an inlet between rocks with a large pool area that the
waves come crashing through and bubble through (with force) in the inlet.
The kids had a great time there for about an hour, quite an experience.
From there we went over to the US Virgins and into Cruz Bay where we did a
check in/check out for a 24 hour period. Stopped at Christmas Cove on James
Island for the night with Hark and D'accord. Found everyone on board our
boat for drinks and Mike and Andrew (Hark) took the dingy across to St
Thomas to find pizza for dinner. Only took 90 minutes!
Early this morning we headed into Benner Bay and everyone went to the
chandlery, internet cafe, supermarket etc except for the kids and Shirley
who stayed behind for some school work (BVI immigration will be pleased with
us!).
Left there around mid day and headed for the Spanish Virgins, Culebra
Island, which is in fact part of Puerto Rico. Got here around 5pm, in time
to miss customs, but found the airport anyway. The customs man hadn't been
in all day anyway as his wife is having a baby and they have gone to the
mainland. So had to make a phone call and sort it out that way and report
back there first thing in the morning. You just have to go with the flow
sometimes!
