Trip report- Part 1 of Day 4 of too many
We are up with the sun, it is our boating day and we are excited to get it started.
We pack up water and beer and all of our boating accessories and head out to meet Capt John.
After paperwork and getting settled we are off. We have a list of things we want to do today:
Chip wants to see a starfish
L wants to spend some time at Seddy's
J wants to get in some good snorkeling
I want to see dolphins
Only one of us got our wish
We stop at Waterlemon to grant Chip's wish. We get into the water and I do what I always do. I see a few things, one thing scares me and I go back to the boat.
I admit I am a wimp. This is what I saw to send me flipping back
The rest of the crew continues around the cay and Capt. John and I caught up. While we sat on the boat we saw some sailboats having a tough time. The water was rough and they were pounding the water pretty hard. I think he has video of it, it was wild.
The crew came back and Chip was denied his wish, not a single starfish. We headed to customs in Tortola
We thought we would have liked to hit the Indians to grant J's wish of more snorkeling but as we left customs and out to open water it was really rough so we started Capt. John's Wild Ride to Smuggler's Cove and J'd wish was denied. We were bouncing and rocking and L and I sat up front and were hooping and hollaring like 5 years old on the teacups. We had a blast.
We swam ashore had a drink and then we took off on Wild Ride #2 to Foxy's Taboo
We hike out the bubbly pool with high hopes since it was so rough. This is what we saw
We walk back and have a great lunch at Taboo and do a little shopping. I took a bunch of pictures, here are a few
