Hey guys, today is the last day of the 30th annual George Town Regatta. It's a week of all sorts of activities, contests, and races.. The main race is around Stocking Island. Stocking Island is just across the harbor from George Town... They had the pet parade, the notalent talent show, the golf tournament (on the beach) a trivial pursuit contest, fun races, volleyball tournament, sand castle building, art show, and tonite is the last activity, the Variety Show... We met cruisers on God Speed and Paragon who were participating in the Stocking Island race. I hiked up to the Monument to get some fun pics and made some of them upon their return. In the pic you will see their black stockings (Stocking Island????) During the actual race they had sub contests also, who could catch a fish while racing, who could make the best dessert while racing, a photo contest ( you had to be on board the boat) Anyway, a fun time was had by all......
After the weekly ARG meeting, Nimue,Paragon and GodSpeed came over to the SeaVeyor for further research (ARG stands for Alcohol Research Group!!!!!!!!!!!!!) Fun time again had by all.... Bob on Paragon presented Dwayne with a gift ...a Obama T-Shirt ..hmmm, I won't go into how that went over... but, being the good sport that he is , he accepted it .. and then made Pat from God Speed put it on ( Pat being the one that put Bob up to this) Pat and Lorrie are from the Republican state of Wyoming!!!!!!!!!!! Ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Our friends Ric and Rose from TopSail are due in Monday evening... so will pick them up, show them GT and then on to exploring northward...... can't wait... George Town has been fun, getting to know the cruisers and the locals too.... More news at 11....Linda and Dwayne
