Merry Christmas from the islands again.

We came back to union island to get some internet and some hamburger buns and maybe a case of beer. The other ones we had were defective, they seemed to evaporate. Tobago keys last night and it was such a great day today. The rain shower only lasted 5 mins and we were snorkeling with the turtles so we barely noticed. Took 2 long hikes around a couple of the keys, no injuries to report so all is good.

Port side engine didn’t want to start and shutdown after we started it. We have a battery that needs to be replaced and belt that needs to be tightened. Then the gauges refused to work but after we started it it was all good. We just used the diesel kill switch to stop it and took the family ashore to check out the sharks and drop off a bunch of trash that was starting to get ripe. And send them on a search and destroy for some fresh veggies and fruit to restock the boat.

We are toying with where to go next, we had some pretty good swells on the way back south, and are a bit concerned about the trip north, but we’ll make the best of it, and make sure all the meds are topped up before heading north in a day or two.

The Anhorage Yacht club in Clifton, super friendly staff and one of the reasons we come back. Course the shark tank it cool too.

There is a full moon party here on the 28th, and we are trying to decide if thats something we should do or not or if it’ll keep us up all night.

restocked and ready to go shortly
