Regatta

Last Sunday we went out on the Passaat sailboat to see the 31st Annual Heineken Regatta.
The Regatta consisted of 180 sailboats from around the country.
Of course it would turn out to be the only full day of rain we've had since living on the island. It seemed that as we sailed around the island, the rain cloud followed right along over us. Although the weather was crappy the sight of the boats was amazing. The water was still turquoise and the sails were so colorful. It was a great experience and I am happy we got to be so close to the action. We spent the majority of the day on the boat and enjoyed lunch, wine and rum punch. Our friends Rose, Eero, Katie, Lara, James and Amanda were all there as well.
We are already looking forward to next March to see the Regatta again!
