P1010008 0624 Bring on the rain!! Is that lightening?? What the……??? Where are we again? Is it monsoon season? Team Audax aka 5 soggy sailing souls motored, sailed and cruised through uncharted Audax territory yesterday and we loved it! Leaving Cane Garden Bay we trekked around the north side of Tortola, cruising past superstar Andy’s surf site of Josiah’s Bay. Then captain Matt with navigator Rosie narrowly avoided reef rocks off Beef Island and we crossed theIMG_0553 Sir Frances Drake Channel landing safe and sound in Spanish Town for a quick provision stop and purchase of replacement dingy tank (as the day prior saw thievery strike the Audax.) NOTE: When leaving a dock be sure to check for all belongings as half way out to your boat P1010034 you will run out of GAS when a tank is not aboard!!! Luckily favorable winds and friendly locals came to our rescue and we thanked God it was not the motor instead! From Spanish town we hit the Baths, from the Baths we cruised to Peter, at Peter we enjoyed CHILI DOGS!!

A Lesson: Situations one has no control over inevitably arise (theft, rain, etc.) Mostly we just react without necessarily thinking too much about it. Is it not better to hold off judgment, gain perspective, accept that whatever has happened is already in the past and thus respond in the most appropriate manner given the situation at hand?

It sure is a rough life for our guests :), are those stairs or the picture crooked???, its Hooters all over again!,  Yes, once again another big photo album with mystery cover shot??

    Thought the mystery man - was bearded Scot! Glad we missed the lightening and rain - but wish we had seen the Baths - more fun adventures for the Audax and guests!
