Day 5

Author: Rose
Location: Mountain Point, Virgin Gorda
This morning was choppy due to the rainstorm. Luckily, skies cleared once we reached the Baths. The caves were amazing and everyone had a great time exploring hidden beaches and jumping off rock into the water (although we are now covered in scars from climbing). After then baths, we motored to Spanish Town, where we all had lunch (including cheeseburgers and refreshing slushies), went to the grocery store, called home, and slept. It was REALLY hot out, but nice to be on land for a few hours. We returned to the boat with a few interesting items: slingshot, balloons, whipped cream, frosting, etc. After everyone took part in a whipped cream contest, we tried the slingshot. Unfortunately, it did NOT shoot a water balloon at 70 mph, too much disappointment. However, the night dive we took after dinner definitely distracted us. We saw a huge puffer fish, needlefish and bioluminescence!! It was a fantastic end to the day, especially combined with the brownies Ben baked for us once we were dry.
