Bitter End, Virgin Gorda





Posted by Liz

It's beautiful here - glimmering blue water and bright blue skies with breezes to cool us. As Ed exclaimed this morning, you come up on deck from down below, and see the beauty and it's like "being born".

The other night I was sleeping in the V-berth which gets a ton of breeze with our wind scoop up there - and awoke in the middle of the night, looking up through the hatch, I saw a gazillion stars. The constellations kept revolving and changing as the boat direction changed - and I then realized why babies in cribs have such a fascination with Mobiles hanging over their heads. This was my own mobile - and I was mesmerized by it!

There are a bunch of fellow Swan's here for the Club Swan Regatta and that alone has been quite a sight to see.

The Bitter End is a neat resort, and being here we have access to their pool, some little hikes (if we can get motivated to get moving earlier in the day!), and some snorkeling nearby on the reefs. It's quiet and comfortable and gorgeous, so we're going to stay for a few more days!

Arrrggghhh, 11 years ago, I was on Ed's boat at Bitter End. You had to remind me! That's torture. Man, it's a gorgeous spot. I still remember the cat that swung by with two topless babes on it.
Glad to hear things are going well.
