We spent the month of July, visiting family and friends who we left, 1 year ago in Canada.
It was so nice to see everyone but we could have used more time.
After a few slow days back here in Luperon, I think we are re-climatized. There is only one way to describe the weather here....HOT.!!!. Humidity is around 76% all the time but as long as the Trade wind blows, which it does every day, it is comfortable. Light clothing and staying hydrated with our favourite drinks makes it quite enjoyable. Back in Ontario there was a summer heat wave while we visited. It also seemed hot to us, but of course no wind.
We are glad to be back to Mistress. According to our friends who did a fantastic job of minding her, she looked lonely. Other than a few minor things, our home fared very well. For almost 6 months we have been plagued with batteries that cannot hold a charge. We were starting the boat daily to top them off. Somehow shutting everything down for a while has seemed to fix this problem.
Saturday at baseball, before our weekly Gringo vs Dominicanos game, the town kids lined up to receive some new equipment that cruisers had brought back from our trips home to Canada. It was so easy getting through Customs we should have brought more. The kids are so grateful.
glad to see your getting back to boating life way to go sis enjoy
