Great
Arrived safely in South Caicos which is the capitol of the T&C. This a true fishing community. On shore they were cleaning conch and lobster. Had barrels of conch and lobster being processed.
My sailing friend dingied over for a nice cold beer and asked where to go. Three fishermen pointed to a bar across the street, so off we go. As soon as we had our beers ordered a native lady comes up to me and grabs me and started dancing with me. It was suspossed to be dancing but I would call it vertical lap dancing, most embarassing! I soon became the laughing stock of everyone there. I think this wasn't the first gringo.
Had to repent and go to a local church Sunday. A Methodist service and gosh it was beautiful. The youth gave the entire service and let me tell you the dance team was outstanding. Six girls about 8 to 14 in costumes gave their expressive dances with flags and banners. Justmarvelous! It was so good that I went back for the evening service and it was even better. Let me tell you the natives dress to kill on Sundays
That night a local large fishing boat drug anchor right by me so I had to up anchor and move. It drifted off into the sunset.
Tom and I did a walk-about and toured an old deserted mansion ( see Photo gallery)
