As we still had the rental car, we opted for another day of touring. We started by heading south and touring the remainder of the island. We did spot some monkeys, but they are quite shy and I didn’t get any pictures but I think that Rob and Lauren might have managed to get one or two so I’ll try to borrow them and post them on this page tomorrow. The whole southern portion of the island is part of a huge project that is still in its infancy, but when complete should be quite impressive. I had read about some hidden petroglyphs on the web, but the directions to them starting from Bloody Point were bloody useless and we continued on to visit Rawlins Plantation for lunch and to see the studio and house of Kate Spencer, whom we had met at White House bay as she and her husband keep their beautiful boat (Kate) there. After viewing her gallery and talking with her for a while we returned to our anchorage, loaded with rocket salad from Kate’s garden and had almost made it back when we saw a sign for the Sunset and Shipwreck bars and we sat down to live music and a couple of happy hour libations before returning to our boats shortly before sunset.
