Finished the covers, our new dinghies arrived, the four of us made the
cover for Waylanders, now we spend another day and a half
building the cover for ours. So off we go to try the boats and have a run
through the new village near the marina. This really is a beautiful
area, not really representative of the rest of the marina surroundings.
It's like a little Venice, canals running in and out from one street to another,
quite stunning. At the far end is a good shopping mall, more expensive than
downtown Puerto la Cruz but we can go by dinghy rather than a cab.
Tony and Chris are very pleased with their new rig,
it is a little faster than ours of course because we have the extra weight of
our lovely storage box. Still, Tony and Chris eat a lot more than we do, I
reckon in a couple a months their boat might slow down a bit.
Last night the 4 of us had a barbeque at the
restaurant here in the marina, it is closed Saturday and Sunday, so anyone
can use the BBQ. We took a bag of carbon, couple of steaks, salad wine and
beer. We had a good evening overlooking the waterfront planning our inland
adventure.
