Did a water run after breakfast. That is, we paddled to the town dock with our two five-gallon water jugs. Roy filled them while I watched the Royaks. Cost one peso a gallon. Took them to the boat and ate lunch.
After lunch, Roy napped and I paddled along the shore. Then he woke up, and we both paddled to the little island where the night club had been. Someone had certainly put a lot of money and effort into it. There were nice, level, cement walkways and steps going the entire length of the island. There were also cement terraces with cement benches and attractive cement buildings. The causeway must be a quarter-mile long. It's perfectly straight and still usable.
Returned to the boat and listened to Herb, the weather man, on Southbound II. He didn't hear my call, but he talked with a man in Puerto Rico who's heading north, so he gave the weather for the Mona Passage. Looks like tomorrow will be a good day to go. Light winds shifting to east northeast. Wednesday and Thursday, the wind will increase to thirty knots, so if we don't leave tomorrow, it will be at least Friday or Saturday before we can leave.
