Monday, December 15. Cuatro Islas.
We went to shore at 10 am and went for a short wander . Then I foolishly decided to go in the water. It was easier than going in on the previous day but it was very wavy and I did not feel completely in control, but had a good relax in my noodle. The expedition staff and David helped me both in and out
In the afternoon we went to a different island Digyo, the smallest of these four islands. Here we found some good red snapper was prepared for us on the beach . We then decided not to walk around the island anticlockwise and we continued clockwise, but the sun was far too hot to stay out in for very long. So once again I committed to a swim and, although I needed help from David and the expedition staff to get in and out, I really enjoyed it and was able to actually swim without the noodle so that was good.
We then caught the first Explorer back to the ship. At the 515 briefing we realise that we had an extra day on the ship and did not actually get off until Friday, having thought that we were getting off on Thursday. We enjoyed a Campari cocktail out on deck six before dinner, where there was a long discussion on what we were drinking! There was an after dinner film on life in the ocean for 15 minutes but we had to get the expedition staff up to increase the volume so that we could hear it.
