Rest and Recovery

Slept in some. Helped Mark remove our jib sail and fold it up. Had breakfast listening to our cruisers net. We loaded the sail onto our dolly and walked across the marina to the sail loft. That meant climbing up two flights of stairs to get there. Mark wanted to post of picture of that but I didn't take one. The sail repairs should be done by Wednesday. Walked around town and back to the boat. Mark did some maintenance on our water maker, changing one of the filters. We went thru all the mail we had forwarded from our mail service. Thanks to everyone that sent us mail since November. We had to change addresses and pay some bills. After dinner, walked up to the cruisers' lounge for a shower and wifi updates. Thankfully, the service is working tonight. It's so up and down frustrating. For some reason we are wiped out. We are planning on watching a movie when we get back to the boat. Tomorrow, we will head back to the St Regis for breakfast, prior to Mike & Lara's departure. The days have been very hot in the morning with little breeze. Then the wind pipes up in the afternoon and we stop sweating. There was a chance of rain today, but none came. We have not seen rain in weeks.

About:
We are both computer folks that were live aboard cruisers back in the 90s. We settled in Jacksonville Florida after escaping the great white north and cruising the Bahamas, T&C, DR and points south down to Trinidad. [...]
Extra: Charabia is a French slang word for nonsense or gibberish. It derives from Arabic "sharab" which means alcohol.When you drink (too much) alcohol, you start talking Charabia. The original owners named her and Mark liked the name so it stuck.
