I can't believe it, I was up before Jorge this morning! He had two of his major boat jobs accomplished so I guess he was not so stressed and was able to sleep in. Temp was again warm but the skies were overcast. Having said that, the first thing Jorge checked when he got up was the solar panels. Even with the overcast skies we were still getting up to 8 amps with the panels. He was so pleased!

We puttered on the boat in the morning, had lunch and then went to town. Jorge was off to the hardware store (again) and a chart store and me, off to do laundry. How I love the warm weather. We wear very little clothes while on the boat so very little laundry to do.

Stefano and Helen were coming for happy hour. Stefano had kindly downloaded his world charts on a disc for us and he installed them on our computer. A back up system for us. Helen and I drank too much wine, had appetizers and chatted in the cockpit while the guys were going the computer thing. They left around 2000 and leftovers were supper. My favourite!

We pass this sailboat when going to the dinghy dock - waiting for a new carbon fiber mast.

Lauderdale Marina - where CS'ta Time spent a few summers on the hard while her previous owners were back in Ontario.

Pelican just hanging out.

Duck! We have to go under this bridge with our dinghy to get to town. Interesting  at high tide!

Our anchorage at Lake Sylvia.
