Yesterday we shared a rental car with Hayden and Raydeen from Island Spirit and went to Dean's Blue Hole which is 664 ft. deep and used for Free Dive competition. There is a platform in the middle of the hole for divers. We swam out to the platform. It is a little intimidating and there are warming signs saying to stay out unless you are a good swimmer. I figure you can drown in 20 ft. or 600+ ft. either way. We also visited Clarence Town and on the way saw one of the island race boats under construction from local trees. We visited two of the churches that were built by Father Jerome who retired on Cat Island and built the Hermitage on the hill that we saw last year.
We had a good time in Georgetown playing dominoes and attending the opening ceremony for Cruisers Regatta Week. There was a "No Talent Talent Show" and a Doggie Parade.
We departed Georgetown on Thursday morning and had a great sail down. We may be here for a week waiting for good weather to move on to Cat Island.
