Fun and games

by Posted on

On February 24, the Regatta had a family sandcastle building competition on the beach behind Chat & Chill. Cecelia decided we’d make Captain Soggy Doggy’s castle, while Adeline made a sculpture of Captain Soggy Doggy right next to it. Super cute.

Getting somewhere?
Hooray!

We had lunch at Peace & Plenty and Cecelia checked out their swings.

Swings in the water…they are a thing.
Coming back to shore!

The next day we managed to score a new (to us) dinghy motor, bringing our dink’s horsepower up from 3.5 to 8! Patrick enjoyed taking Cecelia out for a rip.

They were planing before I got the camera out…oh well!

I baked some buttermilk biscuits and completely forgot to take photos (oops). We had another pot luck on the beach with a bunch of friends and they were gone in a flash.

On the 26th, there were family games on shore, which turned out to be just kid games (parents were more than happy to spectate!) and they were a lot of fun for all.

Sack race!
Ball on a spoon race – her team decided to walk backwards to keep the wind from blowing the ball off the spoon.
Crab race. 🙂
Conch on a string – they had to roll the string up and try to get the conch across the line fastest.

The games were run by Amy and Brett on Joule, and they did a fantastic job!

I borrowed this photo of a bunch of boats at anchor in Georgetown from another boater’s post on Facebook – Oestara is there, I promise! We are right in front of a big navy blue and white trawler that is almost halfway down the photo and about 1/3 of the way in from the left side. Our dinghy is right behind our boat, on the starboard side.

Which brings us to the close of yet another day.

Another sunset.
Moonrise.
