We started the day bright and early to set up a special breakfast buffet in honor of Ceci, the birthday girl! The spread included a delicious assortment of watermelon, eggs, sausages, bagels, orange juice, and a variety of birthday treats. To make the morning even more special, we showered Ceci with a few small gifts and heartfelt cards.

Once the celebrations were underway, we got ready to leave the dock at Soper’s Hole Marina. Julien, our skipper for the day, expertly sailed us to The Bight. The afternoon was filled with fun and adventure as we indulged in various watersports, made friendship bracelets, and enjoyed snorkeling and diving in the crystal-clear waters. The weather was absolutely perfect—sunny with a light breeze, adding to the joy of the day.

As the evening approached, Char, Finn, and Reese took charge of dinner, whipping up a delicious meal of mac and cheese, followed by a homemade cake for dessert. The festivities didn’t end there! We hosted a social gathering, inviting people from other boats to join us for a few hours of mingling and fun. It was a delightful way to end a day full of celebrations and activities.

The greatest challenge during the program was staying entertained during the quarantine period. Not being able to leave your boat and not having a phone, which was a crutch against boredom, it was difficult at first to stay entertained.
