Thursday morning Josh woke up with a sore throat and not feeling very good. I made him some eggs and bacon but that did not help much. He said if we go out that he wanted to stop at the store for some cough drops.
I had ice cream on my mind and it would not go away! Thanks to Ross because after our dinner the night before, Ross said something about stopping at DQ for ice cream. We were too full and it was a little chilly so we did not go. You know how it is when you have something on your mind and it won't go away until you have it.
I said to Josh "lets go to DQ for a shake then we can ride to the store". He said a shake may feel good on his throat. I contacted EJ and asked if Ross was up and to not let him eat too much because we are going for ice cream. Around 11:00 AM we were off on our bikes to DQ and we all ordered larges shakes / malts. It was way too much! We went to the only grocery store on the island and as we were heading back we stopped by the Farley boat shop. The Farley boat shop is a local place where people can come to build wooden boats and there are volunteer experts with wooden boat construction knowledge who help them. Nothing is for sale here.
This Peacock is made from all the paint brushes used on one boat. I told them that they should name each Peacock with each boat name.

After we got back to the boat everyone but me took a nap. I read a book. Around 4:30 after everyone woke up, we gathered on our boat for munchies.
If you ever wanted to know what the difference between a 36 foot boat and a 49 foot boat, this is it!

I lathered up with Vicks and settled in to watch our shows hoping Josh would feel better in the morning. Josh does not like Vicks, but it makes him feel better if I use it. It also helped me with my stuffy nose.
It worked! Josh woke up Friday morning feeling a lot better. We were going to take our dinghies down today and play around but it was overcast and EJ said the sun was not coming out until 2 PM. Dinghy ride would be cold and wet! So it was a bike day! We headed out on our bikes for lunch at Moby Dick's restaurant and on to "the pink place", the eclectic store named Gratitudes (a local, long time favorite of ours), then down to the beach, over to the Farley Boatworks museum for souvenir T-shirts before heading back to the boats.
