O'VIVE PACIFIC CROSSING: A known harbor in a new Light!
We dropped our anchor in Georgetown, the main town in the south Exumas. We have been here many times over the years when we cruise in summer but what a change; there might be about a hundred sailboats or more! We usually see about 12 to 15 boats! So it was a nice surprise to see people from all over the world, Lots of Canadians, Netherlanders, and Americans. David and Emilie stayed in GT over the week-end while Alec and I flew back to Miami to attend the AYSO soccer tournament in Palm Beach. We promised Alec as a Christmas present that, if at all possible, we would do our best to fly him back so he could play with his team the "Blue Devils" and indeed it was a success, they went all the way to the semi-finals!!! It was so exciting and we had a great time, it was the first time his team got so far in this tournament. We are back and after a good night of sleep (we slept right through a wavy night, 28 knots of wind with this cold front just coming through) we are getting back in the cruising mode and homeschooling. The kids just took off with two Canadians kids who are speaking both English and French; hopefully they will practice their French a little. I hope that will get them excited about making new friends, they have not been making contact very much yet, I guess it is only 2 weeks, but time will come when they will be looking out for those kid's boats.
