Today was our only full day in Lucaya, and we really pack a lot into it. All the ladies walked to the grocery store while George the mechanic worked on the Windlass. He also worked on our fuel tank problem as well as our refrigeration problem. Jack, Greg, Jimmy and George stayed with the mechanic to lend a helping hand if needed. Seems this guy might know what he is doing. Another solenoid was needed. The first one we put on was not the right one and was wired incorrectly. We will find out as the trip progresses to see if it is fixed this time or not. We got back from the grocery store, Jimmy, Charlotte, Greg, Charlotte, Jack and Linda went to the beach and pool. I stayed back to called my brother to wish him a happy birthday and to see how he was doing He has been in the hospital with a blood infection. I was relieved to hear he was doing better, but I am still concerned about him being in the hospital. I then went to the beach to join the others. George followed soon after. The swimming pool has a swim up bar. That night everyone took George and me out for dinner. We again had a great meal. As we sat there and ate my thoughts were about all the things we had been though for the past 6 weeks. After dinner we topped the night off with music in the public theatre and another limbo show. Tomorrow the wives are flying home and Martini will start the passage home. I think we all were dreading the next morning.
