Sunday Fun day!
I cooked bacon, sausage and pancakes for breakfast before departing Anegada.
It was another great sailing day!
Winds 18-20 knots

Heather pointed out Richard Branson's private Islands as we approached Saba Rock. We picked up a ball at Saba Rock in Virgin Gorda and took the dinghy in to meet Bobby, Adrian and Jennifer for lunch. The beautiful restaurant at Saba Rock is the only thing on this little island. It is impressive. We enjoyed a round of drinks and a delicious lunch. After lunch we walked the perimeter of the island and checked out the boutique. We said goodbye to Ross and friends. They headed back to St. Thomas in Bobby's boat. We took the dinghy to The Bitter End Yacht Club on Virgin Gorda. We all bought something in the shop there! We enjoyed the waterside bar for a while and then Heather ran Dawn, Annie and I back to the boat. The others stayed a little longer and then Heather rejoined them for a bit. After everyone was back on the boat our cabin lights suddenly went out. Heather called Ross and he began to trouble shoot for us. They discovered that the battery had tripped. Heather turned it off and back on again. Lights! We were back in business. Everyone had a bite to eat on their own. We played a couple of card games and called it a night.
