As I wake up, the fog is very dense. It was hot yesterday and now the wind is completely calm. Today is a sad day – the crew will leave. We have had a limited time together but a lot of fun. We have a nice breakfast and decide to repeat the tour next year. This has been a very good crew and I would be happy to repeat this journey at another place and time. We will see.
As they leave for the train station, I clean up and get back to being the only one on the boat. The heat is unbearable and it feels like I am in the New York traffic with the water scooters and boats that go back and forth just outside me. I decide to go into town and rewards myself with a nice meal. There is obviously too much to choose from but I pick a typical “tourist trap” on the beach. The prices are decent and the food was surprisingly good. And the views looking out on the bay is breathtaking. I linger for a while before going back to the boat.
