Tuesday, June 23, 2009


It was another day that we were happy to have air conditioning! In the morning we put the sails up, tuned the rigging, switched the radar deflector from the starboard to port spreader, rigged up a pulley system for our flags on the starboard spreader and reprovisioned. Brian, the new Gemini owner, stopped by in the early afternoon and offered to take us to town to pick up groceries and supplies. We accepted his generosity and he dropped Maureen off at the grocery store while the men went to West Marine. We also stopped at the Beer Store and the LCBO to pick up some wine and beer. Word was that the Beer Stores and LCBOs were going on strike at midnight so the place was crazy and the shelves were beginning to look bare!

After returning to the boat, it took some time to put everything away. We heated up the leftover pizza and then put on our swim suits to try out the pool. It was about 7:30 pm when we got to the pool and it was packed with kids, beach balls and noodles. We opted to sip on a glass of wine poolside and then go back to the boat without a swim.
