Another Driving Adventure

We rented a car again today to drive from Emerald Bay to George Town. We wanted to visit Minn's Water Sports to put money down on an 8 hp outboard for the dinghy.  The car we rented had the steering wheel on the right which George thought made the driving even harder than when the steering wheel was on the left. He got the hang of it eventually. After we ordered the outboard we stopped at Shirley's restaurant at "Fish Fry"  (a collection of small buildings that sell food, often fried, and drinks.) Then we stopped at Smitty's and Prime Island Meats for provisions. After we returned to the marina we walked over to a different dock to visit a couple we had met in George Town a few weeks ago. They both had the flu so we didn't stay long. Since we already had a rental car we decided to drive somewhere for dinner. By that time it was dark and driving on the left was even more challenging, especially with oncoming cars and their misaligned headlights. We finally found Shoreline Restaurant (closed), turned around and looked for Big D's (couldn't find it) and ended up stopping at Emerald Bay Bar and Grill. It is within walking distance of the marina. The food was delicious so all was not lost.
