This morning we reluctantly said goodbye to R&R Kedger and Neko who were headed north bound. We headed south to Carti. Its another relatively populated native Indian island.
Alas, when we arrived we discovered with the prevailing winds the water was choppy. And the two boats that were at anchor were taking up the best anchoring spots. We dropped anchor once, but weren't happy with how close we were to the nearby reef. So we pulled up the anchor and headed for Nalia.
Its a beautiful small hurricane hole surrounded by mangroves. At the very end the bay is just big enough for one boat to anchor. It was glassy calm. The sun set and the water became so clear you could see all the stars reflected in the water. We sat up on deck listening to the crickets all night. We absolutely love it here. Except for the bugs. Dang little no-see-um types that bite all night. Hate those little rascals.
