At anchor in True Blue Bay. One of the many
small fjordlike bays along the southern coast.
This has been a productive school week as we only
moved small distances.
Afternoons we go ashore to explore or swim. The
water here though is more murky given swell and clay bottom.
Here in True Blue the small resort has swimming
pools to the boys' delight.
 At Hog island further east we found nothing but
coconut crabs, goats and Roger's bar. He has built a shed on a
tiny beach head and lives out there rather primitively. In the sheltered bay
some cruisers stay long and Roger's is the afternoon hang out it seems.
  Cruising kids play with everyone we are
learning.
 Hiking on the island was like a walk on a Swedish
West cost island : grassy and open to the big ocean.
Soon however also this island will be covered with
villas...we wonder what happens with all the wild life here in the
south.
Now we turn north again tomorrow.
