We took the dinghy ashore for a bit of a walk....were pleased to see that the table the cruisers built several years ago is still standing!!!
Since we're the only boat in the anchorage, no need for the "meeting area" yet....I'm sure we'll do some cleanup at some point.
A side note - there are a lot more bugs here than we were expecting. Even with strong breezes, we are getting mosquitos and biting flies in the evening. Of course, we put the screens up but hate to do that as it impedes air flow in the boat. I believe the surrounding marsh/mangrove area is a bit wetter than we're used to. This will probably abate in the coming weeks as we head into a drier season.
Walking and beachcoming on the ocean side.
Beautiful as always!
Of note, there is a subtle difference in the shoreline - lots of sand is missing, I'm assuming from Hurricane Michelle's surf.
Back to the boat.....
My "haul" for the hour or so walk....was pleased that Duane found a "purse" bean - fairly rare for me. It's the bean at the bottom of the photo. One of these years I'll get around to polishing one of these for a necklace!










Surprising what even a mild hurricane can do in such a short period of time
