Johnny and Joanne had offered to let us borrow their car, but since there was no place to park it downtown, we’d declined. However, at Havn there was parking, so we took them up on the car. In the morning, Eric went to Johnny’s house to pick up the car. After he returned, he used the marina pump out on our blackwater tanks. Much to his dismay, it wasn’t working. Sigh.

In the afternoon, Eric went on a boat ride with Johnny and Steve on Steve’s boat. Steve picked Eric up from the end of the dock.

The sunrise on Monday, May 12 was blocked by low atmospheric clouds.

And the rest of the sky turned an odd violet-ish color.

We’d decided to move around the corner, where it was more protected from the wind/wind chop (the blue dot on the map that we’d posted upon arrival at Highbourne Cay). We had to bring in the flopper stopper no matter what, as they weren’t meant for use in motion. Even though it was a short ride, we decided it was best to bring up the dinghy, too.

This week has been fun. On Saturday, mom and dad finished cleaning the bottom of the boat, then we went to town for lunch. We went to all the restaurants and all of them were closed except for the yacht club. 

Cette semaine était amusante. Samedi maman et papa ont fini le nettoyage du dessous du bateau et nous sommes allés au village pour le déjeuner. On est allé à tous les restaurants, mais seulement le yatch club était ouvert. 

On Sunday, we moved to a new anchorage called Cambridge Cay to meet up with our friends from Baja, Oceananigans. We went over to the beach with them and some of their friends, Kepler and Cosmic Connection, and had a fun time. On Monday, we snorkeled around a rock near the boat. We saw a few fish, and even a baby turtle. In the evening, we went to the beach again.
