Christmas Day

Santa found Hakuna Matata! During the night he’d left loads of pressies underneath some silver baubles in the saloon. However we were under orders from the Skipper not to wake him up till 9am!!!!!!!!!!!! So the rest of the “not-yet-time-adjusted” crew had a lot of time to fill in before pressies could be opened. We spent the time watching Elf and asking and answering the question “what time is it now?”.

The skipper’s waking up was so momentous we took a photo which is so unattractive we decided not to publish it!
The presents (which had taken around 1/3 of the suitcase space on the flight over) were eagerly opened especially by the youngest member of the crew.
We had booked a Christmas turkey dinner at a local restaurant so the rest of the day was spent swimming and on the beach and chilling. Around 5:30 a Caribbean Santa visited all the boats on his specially adapted rib-sleigh!
Christmas dinner was eaten with warm breezes, palms and other yachties but was missing stuffing and parsnips.
