Early up this morning. All night the boat rocked in the
swell coming in to the bay and can hear it breaking up the beach. The boat has
stayed put on its anchor lets hope continues. Again a day of very little wind
and only this afternoon did the clouds dissipate.
The up early was for the Covid test at the
hospital. Arrived at test area 0630 and were done by 0645. We think it is so
early so the swabs can go to Kingstown, on the main Island, on the 0830 ferry.
If service as some others have had recently we shall have the results back
tomorrow but latest should be Friday. Need it to be back by lunch time Friday so
can get to Customs & Immigration before they close to get our departure
papers with the plan to pick up anchor Saturday morning to arrive Antigua by
Monday morning. After the test we hang around town till 0800 when Maria's opened
so we could get an English breakfast, which was very pleasant start to the
day.
The chocolate was good so will buy some more to last the
next couple of weeks.
All 3 rope bags that did not have a support along its
mouth have all had a piece of batten sewn in and they look a lot more functional
and rope etc should not tend to fall out, trip north will test in real
conditions.
