Thursday March 07 - At Sea on a Catamaran

 
This was supposed to be a full day of sailing on a 78 ft catamaran. We did spend the whole day on or by the ocean but unfortunately they didn't even hoist the sails but motored all the time. There was probably not enough wind to make it worthwhile. It was nevertheless a wonderful day. There were just enough people on the boat so as not to be crowded. The crew was very friendly and there was an open bar all day long. Some people really took advantage of this. After a few hours of boating we stopped for swimming and snorkeling. The water is great but there wasn't much to see.
When everybody had enough of snorkeling we continued along the coast of Nevis for another couple of hours. We saw a big whale frolicking in the water and also many flying fish. The boat was then beached and we could all just walk off the boat to a waiting BBQ on the beach. They had chicken, chicken hot dogs and several salads and the food was delicious. We probably spent a couple of hours on the beach until it was time to return to St.Kitts. By the time we got back to the hotel we were very tired. Too tired to go to a proper dinner. Gunilla and I went to the pizza shack for pizza and Kim and Charlie got out so late that only the coffee shop was still open. Friday is our last day and we plan just to hang out. Check out is at noon and our plane is at 4.20pm.
