I am so happy that Peter is back. I am sure that my relationship with Evan (LOL!) would not have worked out. Maybe I'll try to snag him for someone in the next generation of my family.
It continues to be unbelievably beautiful and peaceful here. But, in addition to being a tropical paradise, George Town and Elizabeth Harbour is a safe, generous and friendly community of cruisers and locals. At peak season, there are about 300 boats anchored here. Everyone shares knowledge, expertise and parts. It's like a small town. No one locks their boats or dinghies. Being on topside is like being on your front porch. You can wave and yell to your neighbors nearby and greet the people going by in their dinghies. This is what the world should be like everywhere.
We plan to leave here tomorrow or the next day, depending entirely on when Peter is satisfied with the amount of maintenance and repairs he has completed. Our friends Enis and Ula from Baltimore should be landing at the airport right now, and they will be sailing with us to Conception Island, Long Island and the Aklins as the four of us head to Jamaica. We are really looking forward to having them aboard again.
The next post may be from Jamaica. Hoping for fair winds and following seas!
