Fuik Baai
10 April 2016
Jani and I headed out Friday after lunch to enjoy a relaxing weekend at Fuik Baai with the locals. We obtained an anchoring permit which allowed us (a foreign boat) to anchor for three nights. When we arrived on Friday we were the only boat there. On Saturday 30 boats arrived and 10 spent the night. On Sunday there were 50 boats in the baai (bay) with us. The locals were having a wonderful time swimming, playing, jet skiing and enjoying music. We had been forewarned about how loud the music could be so we anchored in the deepest water well away from the crowd. So we got to enjoy the music at just the right volume.
Jani and I were very tired from our 3+ weeks of working on the boat. Saturday we mostly napped and read books. On Sunday we went for a relaxing snorkel even though the water was cloudy. It was just nice to be able to swim off Lovely Lady. Our weekend restored our energy and enlivened our spirits. We are so happy to be on the water again.
