One final sunrise greeted us as we prepared for disembarkment. A rainbow suggested that a pot of gold awaited us out there, somewhere in the Caribbean. We were not to find it on this trip, though, it was time to go home.

We motored the short distance to Barefoot and docked. Frank filled out our ASA log book, and we were officially certified. We shared a cab with Steve and Angelina and started the long journey home.

It was a very full, very exhausting vacation. Well worth the money and time and effort. Both Sheryl and I agreed that we would take more sailing courses in this manner, using the opportunity to explore yet another region of the Caribbean under sail.
