Logging Out of The Turks and
Caicos Islands at South Dock
 Up we jumped to get the hire car back
to Avis, at the back of the airport for nine o'clock. The lady called Juilbert
who brought us back in his shiny minibus. On our way back we asked to be dropped
along the main road to go and log out. We had three sides to a square to walk on
what we will just call 'unmade' road and leave it at that. At the end of the first road the views down to
Sapodilla Bay
    No mention of my poor left heel
(Plantar Fasciitis) but it hurt quite a bit. Last road, then in the corner C+I (Customs and Immigration Office)
  All cleared out, we stood and watched sand being off-loaded, the Customs man
had told us it was from Jamaica. Then the walk back to Baby Beez
 Everything perked up for me no end,
when I found my 'One Careful Owner'. This was an
event. The island of Providenciales had been a barren desert of OCO's as they
all get 'tidied' away to scrap yards - and that's now considered cheating to
photo any girls and boys in such a place. Well here tucked off the main road,
out of sight was this queen.
   Exposed in
all her glory - now we have a minimum entry requirement, as the standards
have had to increase - Must Have Tree or at the very least a Big Plant growing
through said nominee
      Next minute I'm in my element
with so many trailers to look at, AND a new category
'One Carefully Owned Glove'
  Back out on the main road, Bear
couldn't believe that this post had been killed, with
so much space to have avoided it
 On the corner by the Royal turks and
Caicos Police Station was a fancy booze shop,
complete with lady who spoke no English - amusing time buying Diet Coke
cans
 At the dinghy dock we
met the crews of Nancy Dawson (Randy and Susan) and Mi Amante (Charlie and
Michelle), all from Canada. A happy little convoy on the morrow, all heading the
same way. They were off to the thrift shop with loads of 'stuff' they had sorted
from their ladies. If I'd have known the Salvation Army had a shop here I could
have had a real good rummage and got rid of a few bags full. Thank the Lord for his mercy and kindness. Coward. Yes, I've had a nice time here and don't want
it spoilt with you feeling round my hidey holes, thank you very much.
With that we went for a mini spuddle on Baby Beez and
saw South Dock from the sea.
 Our
last shot of the girl before saying 'farewell' to the T+C
Islands
ALL IN ALL A SMASHING TIME AND A LATE ENTRY ON THE 'OCO'
FRONT
