 Cottages on the water for rent
 The beach next to the one we are at
 Bob enjoying our beach
 What a ham!
 Now this is low tide
All the white is sand under about 2' of water
Storymaker is about the 4th from the left of the picture
 Part of the community beach
 Me enjoying our beach!
 Gotcha Derek!
Me showing Tom and Cindy how the Wong game is played!
 The mail boat is in!  Hopefully our batteries are on board!
 A truck getting his goodies off the mail boat!
 Lady Frances....don't bother calling her on 16 she won't answer you
She will answer the ports though
 Yaay!  Got them!
We will be staying afloat!
 Our sun setting
Rob and Rose from R & R Kedger
Great people!  We met them in George Town but didn't
get to spend a lot of time with them....now we are trying
to get together more since we are moving north (kind of)!
 
Today was a full day of fun!  We sat on the boat most of the morning waiting for the mail boat to come in then it dawned on us we could be at the beach watching for it also....so we met Tom and Cindy over at the beach for a bit. 
 
Bob went over and picked up the batteries once the boat arrived.  Believe it or not, it only cost us $4 in shipping for each battery....now how in the world is that possible!  Don't ask what we paid for the batteries, you really don't want to know, we are just thankful we are staying afloat....worth every penny!
 
Tomorrow we are headed to Little Farmers for the weekend festival and football game!  Black Point is clearing our fast....I'm thinking they are headed there....but we are also getting a storm coming through so a lot of cruisers may be headed for Emerald Bay....we shall see!
 
I did figure out a way to clean the chain....I dropped it in a 5 gallon bucket and poured bleach water in it.  It must have worked because I don't smell any more fish inside my boat now!
 
We also finally figured out the water leak in the bedroom....the bolts had actually loosened up from us walking on the outside of it....we've tightened them up....no more leaking issues!
