Back in business

I have spent the last two days catching up with my sister. If you could lose weight just by talking I would be in great shape by now! We had decided to spend Tuesday night in Crown Bay Marina to make it easier for her because the lovely anchorage by the airport had no dinghy dock
Our other Uruguayan friends in Sugar Plum were going to meet us also on Wednesday but the passage from Fajardo was rough and they decided to stay in Culebra. This meant they would only get to St. Thomas on Thursday.
Since we had to wait for them we dinghied to Charlotte Amalie and walked around. When they finally arrived they could not anchor in Crown Bay so they went to Charlotte Amalie instead. So Sandra got to see the bay by dinghy and by boat. By dinghy it was more exciting because we had the hydroplane land very close, too close to us in factn twice. The second time we actually had to go as fast as we could to shore to avoid it!
Justo (Sugar Plum) took us to lunch in the large new Marina on the East side of the Bay and then to dinner in a very nice restaurant on the West end. We told Sandra not to get used to this, our life on the boat is far more frugal!
Today we left at eight and are heading to St john. We were originally going back to Lameshur Bay while Sugar Plum was going to Tortola but they decided to spend the night in St John and asked us to join them in Rendez Vous. Bay which is their favorite. It's just a mile or so before Lameshur so we'll do it. The waves and the wind are coming against us, six footers but Sandra discovered she does not get seasick and actually loves it!
