We have spent a couple of nights here and I realise it is update time. We had been on the move for 3 days, wanting to get a spot with westerly protection from the same storm that has hammered the US. We spent a night at Bennett Harbour, Cat Island, which was a lovely spot. Then we had a nice rousing 60 miles sail here to Rock Sound where our speed averaged about 6 and a half knots until we got to the last 5 miles which was dead to windward. I caved in and used the motor.
We really like this little town. There are quite a few really cute little traditional small houses with bougainvillea erupting from behind stone walls or picket fences. Pastel colours on the buildings and hand painted signs advertising businesses complete the picture. The only discordant note is the trash strewn about, as is the case in many other parts of the country. This is very troubling to tourists and I am surprised the government does not do more to address the problem.

Looks like so much fun on your party boat!
