        Well, things don't always work out as planned. It looks like the marina and
        probably the town is out of water, therefore no bath facilities. The restaurant didn't
        look too inviting either. We will probably join the local happy hour and retreat to
        Boundless for another great dinner by Faith!
        
        We are now about 40 miles from St. Thomas and 60 miles from Tortola. A good
        days run with reasonable weather. If we get a chance to put up a sail it will be an
        easy run but the likelihood of this is very low as we will be headed due East and
        the trade winds in this area are Easterly or Northeast. If we get a break in velocity
        we'll get to St. Thomas and if not, we'll stop at the Spanish Virgin Island of
        Culebra, a little more than half way. Tune in to the next log update to see how we
        did!
        
        It has been great here in Puerto Rico, even our cell phone worked! I hope this
        continues into the US and British Virgins. The free 800 numbers on the local
        phones are also a great convenience.
        
        Love to you all! Hope to see you soon!
