Today I sailed the 5.7 miles to Daniels Bay where some episodes of "Survivor" were filmed. This is a lovely bay and very well protected. Two other singlehanders whom I know, one from British Columbia and the other from Turkey, were here when I arrived. We took a dinghy up the river and then hiked inland for about a mile where we saw a few houses with nice gardens and some archeological ruins. The river has some small trout-like fish and I think tomorrow I may return with my fly rod. I would love to identify them. One of the guys barbecued some chicken on his boat and I provided some ice cold beer. What a feast!
Sand Dollar may stay here an extra day as I am contemplating joining the other guys who want to hike to a waterfall reputed to be the 3rd highest in the world.
