Cave Diving - Night 150

Heavy, tropical rain fell all through the night. In my infinite wisdom I left both my towels and my swimming trunks out on the line. Even with the rain and the nets that we slept underneath, the mosquitoes still had a field day on my feet and ankles. Breakfast consisted primarily of...

A sailor's life for us!
