The morning broke with the water so calm it was like a mirror with the reflections of the boats seen across the water and the trees around the anchorage. A strange mixture of sounds great us here dogs, hens , and howling monkeys, the panga fishmen where pulling out as I came up, they anchor not far from us as a fish camp so they can check their long lines.
It was Sunday, the sun out and boys started off swinging off the back of the boat into the water, we have swings set up off the davits they love to swing up and splash down. After this the boys and I went out in the dinghy fishing, we caught a red snapper much to delight of the boys. Before returning for Sean and I to rig the dinghy into a sailing dinghy and we sailed the island exploring and teaching Sean how to sail. Alex was not to be left out and he wanted to sail as well.
Tonight it was Halloween we rigged the dinghy with flags off the mast, and boys in pirate costumes and Tracy in a witch outfit, and we rowed around the other boats doing trick and treat much to joy of everyone on the boats and the boys. As we went along you cannot believe the fluorescence in the water it just sparkles by it's self and when the oars hit it just comes lights, we played with this as it stronger than we have seen before.
It was a day of cleaning, and sorting after the 3 days on the move and a day of rest, we may move on to the next island tomorrow we will discuss over breakfast.
Will upload pictures at next good wifi connection.
Happy Halloween.
