On Christmas morning, the people in the boat behind us in the bay of Maiden Island dingied past and asked if we would like to join them for drinks later in the day.  That was perfect.  So, around 5p we dingied over to their boat, Prax, and climbed aboard.  They had invited the other three boats in the bay to join as well, two of which did so.  August and Oi, from Prax, were traveling with their dog, Gigi, who was adorable.  This was their first year sailing, as August just retired as a professor at Yale.  The other two attendees were single-handed sailors – Martin from the Netherlands and Mike, from the USA.  We had “sundowners” with everyone for Christmas Eve and talked about sailing adventures.  August and Oi were such gracious hosts.  They invited us to stay for Thai curry dinner and they also had a fruit cake for dessert.  It was so nice and a terrific end to Christmas day.
