18:30.0N 64:21.6W  Up again at 0630, and out comes the "Game Bag"…this time, after finishing a game of "Sorry", Issy and Poppi go into magnetic chess, as dad tries to wake up!  The crew slowly got moving, and we slipped free from the mooring at Cooper about 0930 and headed to North Sound, Virgin Gorda and our favorite place, the "Bitter End Yacht Club"…a great family fun spot with all sorts of water sports.  The winds cooperated and we had full sails up, on starboard tack, with Issy at the helm, under Nani's guidance most of the way….Nate took over  the helm to navigate the tricky part coming into North Sound, and we were docked by 1400.  "Kitty" and "Alligator" quickly found a beach hammock as "Hurley" checked out the hammock in the cottage where mom and dad would be staying for the next 5 nights…..yes, Cindy and Shawn get some alone time in the resort, and Nani and Poppi get alone time with the grandkids on "Arbella"…everyone wins!  And then we connect throughout the day with water activities.  After some quick beach time, we head to Saba Rock for dinner and "feeding the fish, eel, and lobsters"!  After dinner, Nani, Poppi, "Hurley", "Alligator", and "Kitty" returned to "Arbella" for "Movie Night"….and, by popular demand, we enjoyed the sailor's classic "Captain Ron"… "if anything is gonna happen its gonna happen out there"!…
