14:04.44N 60:56.89W Rodney Bay Marina was very nice and colourful with lots of
little shops and restaurants [Below left] The pontoons still looked very festive and
welcoming. [Below Right] Mike & Jean on Sestina who we had been
close to for much of the crossing. Mike and Jean are old friends from
London Corinthian Sailing club. Peter Hopps another friend from the club
was also on another boat so it was great to meet up after quite a long time. It was great to eat out and have a few drinks in the many
bars and restaurants after 25 days of boat food Our comment about Rogers blind date made it to the top quotes
in the ARC office. Sadly when Roger met up with the girls from
Houdalinqua at the SSB party he went all shy and nothing came of it, although
they were very posh attractive and young. We made it to the prize giving which was a bit long and dull
as not many of the boats we knew won anything. Tucan coordinated the
singing of the nautical version of the twelve days of Christmas as composed on
SSB on the crossing and the carribean dancers had to perform indoors due to the
rain but were still very good. Off shopping to re-provision for Christmas although we do
still have rather a lot of food leftover. This will come in useful as
particularly on the smaller islands everything here is very limited and
expensive. |
