BVI Sailing Trip Day 5

Today we sailed from Soper's Hole on Tortola to a bay on Norman Island.  We stopped and snorkeled at the Indians.

Doing my PT exercises on the front of the boat

Tori and I hopped in for a morning swim.  The water was so warm.  I was just floating on my back and holding on to the rope. 

About to set sail

Going to snorkel at the Indians.  It was a really good spot to snorkel.  There were lots of fish and the water was really clear.


Kirt swam through this tunnel

We saw a jelly fish

When we got to the bay on Norman Island, Kirt, Mark, Tori, and Don went snorkeling at some caves.  They are supposedly the caves from ???? Liz and I were a little snokeled out so we went paddle boarding.  It was hard to paddle board because the ocean is not as smooth as Spirit Lake, but we figured it out.  We paddled over and explored the caves on the paddle boards.  We tried to do a little yoga on the paddle boards, but we just kept falling off.  It was definitely entertaining. 


We took the dingy in to a restaurant called Pirates Bight on Norman Island.  The food was great, the dingy ride not so much.  I don't think the dingy is made for 6 people.  We all got a bit wet.  Luckily it's warm and we dried off fast.  



When we got back from the restaurant, Kirt and I watched Tanner's basketball game.  We had Wifi on the boat so we were able to stream the game.  (After Kirt installed a VPN because we were out of the country in the British Virgin Islands so ESPN+ was blocked.)
