We left Great St. James Island
about mid-morning and made our way to check in with the local authorities at
Jost Van Dyke Island in the British Virgin Islands in about an hour’s time. Check in was $15.00 at one spot, $0.20 at
another (not sure what that was for) and $20.00 for checking in on Sunday. When I gave the girl the 20 cents I gave her
a dime, nickel and five pennies. She
said, “Don’t you have any more nickels? No
one takes pennies anymore.”
After check in and dropping off
our garbage, we headed to Foxy’s outdoor restaurant and had a $40.00
lunch. It consisted of 6 conch fritters
for Daniel, a 6” shredded pork wrap (with fries) for me and 2 diet cokes. Pricey?
I would say, yes. We left there,
and walked the waterfront and came across a small grocery store and decided to
buy a small container (each) of ice cream - $18.00 total. We are leaving this place, we can’t afford
it!
We got back to C-Time and motored over to Little
Harbour and picked up a mooring ball ($30).
The wind has dropped off to about nothing so we had a very calm peaceful
sleep last night, with the exception of the baby goat, off in the distance,
calling its Momma throughout the night.
