Melissa & Dave - Adventures at Sea

Mike and Holly take off

This morning at 6:30am we watched as Neko took Holly and Mike to the airport.

Their plane was supposed to take off at 6:50am, but the plane wasn’t on the ground till almost 8am.

After that we went over to the nearest island with a small store and stocked up on wine, beer, and hot dogs.  Hot dogs!  Wow haven’t seen those in a while.  And the Kuna bread will make due as hot dog buns.  Weenie roast on Apsaras tonight!  The town was sort of sad.  The Kuna Indians live a subsistence level existence in shacks made of canes tied together.  Their toilet facilities consist of a shack over the ocean.  Their water supply comes off the roofs into barrels draped with fabric to filter any debris.

Then we sailed over to Gunboat Key.  Another good sail today, though a bit slushier because the seas had picked up a bit.  The anchorage here is moving us around a bit, but because the wind and waves are the same direction its mostly a little bit of hobby horsing.

Then it was time for the weenie roast.  Melissa made coleslaw and Rose made macaroni salad.  Mary brought the baked beans.  It was a nice dinner!
