Back at The Moorings dock

Arrived back on the dock this afternoon as James the dockmaster kindly found us a space by moving a boat out!

Had a good weekend at Anegada although the initial sail up on Saturday was very tedious as we had wind and tide against us so it was quite late when we arrived. Booked a table at The Lobster Trap restaurant and had a huge lobster dinner which was 3 halves of lobster each!! Unfortunately Peter had a sore mouth the following morning so we think he could be allergic to lobster?

Having bought a new BBQ for the boat we were anxious to try it out so last night we unwrapped the box and Peter cooked us two lovely steaks to perfection. We were anchored in Eustacia sound and were the only boat there which was lovely. Not so lovely was the rolling motion of the boat when the waves came over the reef so sleep was difficult.

Anyway now we are on the dock sleep should not be a problem tonight and dinner is being cooked for us by Dawn on More Amore as they just finished their charter on Sunday. Both Dave and Dawn have been really kind to us since we arrived back and are helping out where they can.

Peter has been to collect the new security bars he has had made for the hatches to stop unwanted visitors to the boat as crime in some parts of the world is a problem as not all islands are low crime like here in the BVI.

Should get the new bimini tomorrow fingers crossed as Greg who is making it for us assured us on Friday it would be ready. It is his day off today so we will see him tomorrow!

Apart from a bit more shopping the boat is nearly ready to leave which is just as well as we are able to stay on the dock here just until Friday. So looks like Friday will be our departure from the BVI.
