Hello All
 
Yesterday at 1140 local time we dropped anchor in St Georges bay. It's a lovely feeling to sail into this place and knowing that we will stay here for a while. The sail has been great fun and we've learned a lot, but it's nice to be on land or at least in shelter for a while.
Yesterday Miia cleaned more or less the whole boat while I was doing something else...!
We still have the big challenge ahead of us, which is to find a repair shop to fix the engine. It's the fuel pump we think. Most shops are willing to order us a new and to install it, but we want someone to check it first to be sure that that is the problem. We are going to look around today as well.
We left our laundry at the laundry service and it will be ready for pick up at 1500. A small luxury we give our self today.
Otherwise things are pretty expensive here. We had lunch yesterday and two salads, some chicken wings and two beers was $77.00... Not a whole lot of restaurants are gonna have us as customers...that's for sure.
The problem is that we can't run the fridge since the main engine is not working, so oatmeal and cereals will be consumed.
All in all, it's a very beautiful place with incredibly friendly people.
 
Until we update next time, take care and think of us...
 
Johan & Miia...
