Christmas Day – started with a walk over the “Goat Trail” to Pidgeon beach
– see why it’s got its name – and we were not goats so it was pretty
taxing; but we made the beach and had our Christmas swim. Then off
to Admiral’s Inn for lunch – great food but the men could have eaten more.
Finally a party in the dockyard.
Boxing day quieter – a few boat jobs in the morning, then joined by Oli to
chill out on Pidgeon Beach in the afternoon, followed by dinner at
Cloggies.
Today a few more jobs to be done on the boat, boat Windward and Leeward
Islands cruising guides to help plan the next step of the journey.
But – sail not repaired – it will now be Monday afternoon, so we are
thinking we might as well stay here for New Year’s Eve – fireworks and what
looks like a good taster menu at Admiral’s Inn. We’ll see.
