Soper's Hole to Baths to Cooper Island...Last night aboard

The girls tacked up wind and made their way up the Sir Francis Drake Channel to the southern tip of Virgin Gorda. Once there they dropped sails and picked up a national park mooring ball at the Baths. The girls snorkeled to shore and had some time to relax on the beach before going on the famous hike through the boulders. They hiked from Devils Bay to Spring Bay and then snorkeled back through the boulders to the boats. The weather after the storm could not be clearer and the stop at the baths was well needed after 24 hours of storm conditions abroad the boats. The girls dropped moorings in the late afternoon and headed to Cooper Island. They picked up moorings in Manchaneel Bay. They will pack up, reflect on the trip, and have dinner aboard Aeolus. We will take everyone into the Cooper Island Beach Club for an end of trip treat. We will be sad to see them go tomorrow morning. They will depart the boats via water taxi tomorrow at 9am to catch their flights back to the US from Saint Thomas.
