Games are one of my favourite parts of cruising; when you’ve run out of Clive Cusslers to read or things to sew, there’s always a good cruisers’ game around the corner…
Although I will admit that I was a little skeptical when Anam Cara first suggested playing croquet on the beach (they’ve got a set on their boat 🙂 )
Clearly my skepticism was unfounded, as croquet has become one of our favourite games — and a seriously competitive pursuit!
There’s also been quite a bit of the “take the dinghy out in to the middle of nowhere and jump in the ocean to swim around for a while and cool off” game…
A little more of the “work in the awesome shade (and wifi) at YaYa’s cafe to pay for all these games”
More rounds of competitive croquet (this time in the excellently manicured grounds of Marina La Cruz)…
Although some of the wickets have had a few extra challenges (you’ll have to ask Brady if Jon was helping or hindering here… Jon’s becoming well known for his ruthless croqueting :P)
And, of course, the working on the boat game… behind the “old” (can 3 weeks old really be called ‘old’??) broken mount are our new engine mounts (AGAIN) which we’ve now installed (AGAIN) and done the engine alignment on (AGAIN) so we are *really* hoping that this round holds up a little better than the last!!
