2-16 Saturday


We're anchored in Sandy Bay; El Bight they call it....it's a long dinghy ride to town, where we went for their once a week delivery of fresh produce from the mainland. The town is a very crowded island, with narrow 'alley's'--paths of wood, dirt or concrete; foot traffic only--no motorized vehicles. A boat is the only way to get there.
We went to the Manatee Bar/Resturant here in Sandy Bay for the weekly gathering of locals and cruisers. Thank goodness it's a nice place, since it's the ONLY one. It's run by a German family - Annette introduces herself and welcomes you and remembers everyones name! Klaus her husband is a great chef; the food is great!
We dug the sewing machine out for a few projects....it won't go back under the table since it's so hard to get back out! The wind generator and solar panels have been keeping our batteries up so we can run the refridgerator, radios/computer, and turn the inverter on as needed.
We'll go back to Josh's Cay to anchor tomorrow---very scenic and the breeze keeps the no seeums away.
