Rob picked me up shortly before 9AM and I took the car back to AVIS at the cruise ship dock, picking up a solitary hitchhiker on the way. After fuelling up and returning the rental, I got a lift from their van to about halfway and then ended up having no luck getting picked up (note to self – get a shave) and walked the whole mountainous stretch back to White House Bay, returning to the dock sometime before noon. The wind and waves on the windward side were still very high so I don’t think I’ll be going anywhere for a day or two and it is time to get some work done aboard the boat.
The beautiful mega yacht Talitha G is anchored outside the bay, I’ll have to see if I can get a picture of her classic lines (she was built in 1929). I did encounter one of her crew members twice this morning, she passed me jogging away from the boat and later, as I was almost at the dinghy dinghy, jogged by me again and she certainly wasn’t 82 years old! Dinner was Mexican tonight with some very spicy rocket salad and that was so filling that it put me to sleep at an early hour.
