We walked around the island and we made a sand cake. We also brought a mini coconut for Diddles. Skyla bought an "L". Then we had to go back to the boat for breakfast of butter with bagel (or jam for Skyla)
After breakfast we went for a sail plus motor (note Captain Doughnut) to a bubbly pool which was more of a foam pool. It would get the big waves from the surf and funnel them through the rocks making them bubbly.
Then we motored to Guana Island which is called because it has an iguana on the side of it. We swam to shore from the boat and then back. We then went in the doughnut and it felt like we were flying.
Then we went for another motor sail to Yacht marina. Skyla and I were jumping off the side of the boat until Skyla for kissed by a jellyfish.
["Fred" Skyla's alter ego informed Virgin Gorda through a delicate understated scream]
We jumped in the tender to go to the hospital. Halfway there the tender ran out of fuel. It was the wrong time for it to break down. So we called 2 boats and the first one to arrive we took. We were towed behind in the tender.
We transferred to a car. Then to an ambulance. Then we stopped to fixthe ambulance bed to the floor but we still had to hold it down.
The driver drove it like he had stolen it. When we got to the hospital they took Skyla in on the bed and she received antihistamines to make her better.
[So all's well that ends well. The morals of the story: less insistence on doughnutting leaves more fuel in the tender. And scars are tattoos with better stories!]
