As our time with Ti Amo comes to an end, we moved today to where it all started back on March 14 -- Black Point Settlement. This is a great spot with good protection from all easterlies, a great laundromat, trash disposal, a big sandy beach, and several restaurants. We departed Sampson Cay at 10:00 and followed Ti Amo one last time. The wind that we're seeking protection from as it builds overnight was perfect for Ti Amo to shut off their engine and enjoy a nice sail.
Beautiful blue water served as the anchorage's welcome mat. Following lunch, we got the dinghy down and headed to shore with a bag of trash and load of laundry. We met Glenda, Greg, and Jaxon at Ida's Rockside Laundry where there were several machines available and no waiting. We filled the washers and walked down the street to Emerald Sunset View to enjoy a few beverages on the patio, with one quick trip back to Ida's to move everything to the dryers. Laundry day is a pleasure with a view like this. Laundry done and back on Crossroads, I knocked out the last 30 pages of my latest book while soaking up some rays and the view from Fiberglass Beach. We gathered on Ti Amo for appys and a wonderful dinner of homemade pizza and salad. We had to cut conversation short as the darkness of night deepened. We had to get home and turn on our anchor light.
There are two kinds of "perfect days" in my book. The first is where I am so caught up in the experience that I cannot stop taking pictures. On those days, it takes a long time to whittle down the ones used in the day's blog entry. The second type of "perfect day" is like today. Where everything is natural, fun, and comfortable and I don't even think about taking pictures. Today I took four photos the entire day and they're all included here. These special times will just have to be remembered with special memories.
