Okay, the internet has it’s places.
There was a couple of boat chores to be done today, all easy and not highly necessary. Installed the aft shower, something that I have been wanting to do since turkey and we ran out of water because it was leaking, so it was the day to take a saw and cut into a perfectly good boat to make a larger hole???
Huh.. cut a hole???? Okay its in an non water tight location. 1.5 hours later and the new aft shower hole was functional, but it was also time to “surprise” shawn and sharon at the airport.
The Taxi’s say its about an hour, the local’s say if you get lost i could take 3hrs, my Garmin/Google maps say they island is less than 30 miles long, who are the locals kidding.
So we drive on the worng side, its one lane, there is barely any passing, non locals are scared to drive (read “me”) … so its much longer than expected.
The road is washed out, its up and down the mountains. Shoulders need a massage after todays trip up and over to the far part of St Lucia.
The joys of the internet, Shawn checked the at blog 34,000 feet from the ground, while aboard the airplane and figured out that we were going go pick him up in the rental car. Worked out good, except that Christine and I were withing about 4 mins of the bailing on us and catching a Taxi to the marina. All ends well, we found them, they were still there, we didn’t run out of gas getting to the south airport, etc….
It has been an awesome day, Shawn/Sharon Skyped the family, we had a nice dinner… looking forward to tomorrows movement!
