Off to Bonaire

Ange
Friday we had a great walk to the “jerk chicken man” who has a stall above Clarks Court Bay. We met Stan & Lann and their friends Flemming & Hells at Secret Harbour & had a 30 minute walk to our lunch spot – it was great to catch up with them & and the conversation didn’t stop for some time! We had a quiet afternoon reading & swimming on PANNIKIN and an early night.
Saturday morning Ange walked into Grand Anse to get some last minute fresh groceries from the IGA. It rained on & off all morning, but was still hot & muggy for walking! Steve attended an informal information session on Panama held by another cruiser/delivery skipper who has transited the canal seven times. He found it very useful & picked up a lot of ideas. We had a game of dominoes with Lann, Stan and Flemming in the afternoon & sadly said our goodbyes to Lann & Stan as they are flying back to the US to see their families for a month. It has been wonderful meeting them & we’re sure we will keep in contact.
Yesterday we got PANNIKIN ready for our sail across to Bonaire, did some washing & treated ourselves to a cheeseburger & chips for lunch at Secret Harbour marina. Steve played dominoes in the afternoon & Ange had a great phone call with Lesley who is nearing the end of a holiday in Europe. Great to speak with you Mum!
After checking out of Customs & Immigration in Prickly Bay this morning we are on our way to Bonaire. Should take about 3 days we reckon!
