All good things come to an end and White Pepper will raise anchor and leave George Town this weekend. She has been here since Jan 25th. We have met good people and have many wonderful memories as well as some bad ones about Jan terrible back pain. She is healed now but has to be very careful with lifting. She is pain free if she walks 2 days out of 3 on the beach.
I will be sad to leave and for reasons that I have difficulty identifying. George Town is simple, beautiful, safe, pious, healthy, and satisfying place to stay. It has short comings but the only one that I even notice is the outrageous cost of beer. I am especially pleased with the apparent racial harmony here and pleasant demeanor of the locals. It is refreshing to be able to meet a large black male on the street at 11 pm and not worry at all--just a nod and a "howdy."
Life here for a cruiser is physical with lots of chores such as every other day trips to town for a load of jerry cans--gas, diesel, propane, and water. There is swimming and long walks on the beach. There is no junk food. In fact there are no restaurants worth going to so everything is home cooked. The web is quite thin here, but the longer I am out of touch the less important the news seems.
I shall miss this place a lot.
The pictures are of everyday life in George Town.
