Yesterday was our first day off of the boat in three days and we so appreciated being able to stretch our legs again. The day started day with our taking the dinghy to shore so that we could walk to the grocery store. Two men were making repairs to Wild Orchids’ dock when we arrived. They told us that the storm waves had been so big a few boards had been knocked loose. We believe it—the waves were big on the W side of the harbor and I am sure they only got bigger as they crossed to the E side. By the time we returned from the store the men were done with the repairs.

Shortly after we arrived we put the dinghy in the water and went ashore to walk to Eleuthera Island Farms, where we bought some local greens. Now the refrigerators are quite full of fresh fruits and vegetables that should last us a while.

Later in the day we returned to Wild Orchids’ for a late lunch. We always enjoy the food there.
This morning we raised the anchor and joined a large parade of boats leaving Rock Sound. Most of the boats seemed to be heading S but we turned N, heading to Pau Pau Bay. We had a sporty upwind sail and dropped the anchor just before noon.
