Thursday night, December 5th, the BVI Salty Dawgs hosted a party for the cruisers. Many of the Salty Dawgs had delayed departures to other island to attend. We took a cab from Soper's Hole with the crew of Tovarisch, Brisa, Rita T and one other couple. Another group from Nanny Cay were there. In all, there were probably 35-40 Salty Dawgs. The island BBQ was great. Fish, chicken, ribs, peas and rice. And of course, rum drinks.
The Lashing Dawgs provided the island beat. I took a turn at percussion, strumming the gourd. Ginny and Cary did as well, much to everyone's delight.
I had a nice chat about development of the island over the last 30 years with Bennett, a local civil engineer. I was surprised that the population of Tortola was only about 7,000 30 years ago.
