Today we decided to head to Soper’s Hole in the BVIs.  The last time we were here, there was only one other boat in the bay.  Now there are a bunch of mooring balls and it is crowded.  We don’t want to stay longer than necessary.

We cleared into customs and immigration, did some provisioning, and took our laundry in to be cleaned.  The grocery prices here in the BVIs are quite expensive, probably double what we paid in St. Croix.  However, we really didn’t have a choice.  Luckily, we are trying to finish up our food so we didn’t have to buy too much.  I’m sure there is a larger store on the island that we will look for when we provision the boat in December.  Our mission for the BVI’s over the next two weeks is to find anchorages that are not very crowded.  We are guessing that in December the popular mooring fields will be quite crowded and we will want to avoid them if one or both girls are onboard.
