We are ready to go to St Martin's on Wednesday.

 

We checked the weather again and also heard from our weather girl and it looks like it will be a good day on the water. Today is a day for checking everything twice and settle everything inside the boat.   
 We found a little beach bar around the corner from us and decided to get off the boat and have a look. When we arrived it looked like we were back in Salinas Puerto Rico. There were boats backed up on the beach with load music and people drinking beer in the water. Just as they do in Puerto Rico. We also found that every one of these people were speaking Spanish. We thought this was odd so I mentioned to some people we were having a drink with and they knew all about it. The Puerto Ricans celebrate Xmas in July! The BVI tourism people invite this and plan many events for them. These people all come by boat and they call themselves the Puerto Rican Navy. They call themselves this because the travel together, party together, and help each other when they are in trouble. Because the slow down of the charter boat business in the summer in the BVI's the restaurants and bars put on extra staff for these people because they really need the business this time of year.
