Bound for Home
I woke at 5, put on some coffee, and finished the final preparations for our return to the marina. We left just before sunrise and began our short sail across the channel to Road Town, Tortola. The sun was just rising, and the winds were starting to pick up. It was so peaceful.
Thankfully, the marina had us return the boat to the end of the pier. No trying to squeeze back in between the pilings. We threw our gear off the boat, disposed of our garbage, had a shower, and hopped in a taxi to the airport.
While waiting for our flight, we went for a walk along the beach at Trellis Bay.
I took this photo of one of the islands as we flew over. Yes, it was the same little toy airplane we flew to Tortola in.
A short stopover in San Juan, and we would be New York bound.
It has been an outstanding week of sailing. Relaxing, invigorating, inspiring.
