Tuesday adventure



Interesting Tuesday adventure: we started out with some friends for Gilligan's Island off the south coast from Guanica. We've never been there and have heard a lot about it. Some of our friends just love it. It's an adventure we wanted to try.
We got to the ferry dock In Guanica in time for the 10 am boat and were told, yes, we could probably get on the 10:00 o'clock boat but we would likely be the last ones because the island was full! At 10 am! On a Tuesday! Who'da thunk it?
We wound up going to La Parguera, one of our favorite beach towns up the road from Guanica, instead. We rented a little skiff to putter between mangrove islands. It costs a lot more than Gilligan's but it wasn't quite as crowded. Still there were so many boats and so many people the snorkeling was terrible. All the beaches seem more crowded than usual this summer. Ah well! This is why people who live in beach towns don't go to the beach in the summer.
