Between the weather that has been very unstable, one day good and two bad and the need (mine and Idette's as our husbands constantly remind us) to find spots where we either have coverage for our blackberries or a hotspot for the internet, planning hasn't been easy. Especially if we add to that the need to be in places where we can pick up visitors and a job Idette and I were offered in the Dominican Republic, and another job I was offered a job which more or less coincided with it so I couldn't accept and one of my friends who was coming over took it, so then her visit was postponed, too many balls up in the air. So finally after going back and forth for a few days thinking where are we going to be to pick up Idette's friends and then be back in Georgetown to catch our planes, we managed to get it all squared away.
And then I called my daughter Joanna and asked her if we had received any mail - my daughter Sophia who normally takes care of our mail was away on holidays - and lo and behold we received a letter from the INS saying we had to be back in Washington on February 20 for our interview!! The worst part is in reality only Juan's letter arrived, and it had been re-mailed, (our mail is being forwarded so all sorts of things happen to it). I have to believe since we filed together that I also will have to be there for the interview. This means of course that tomorrow we will have to call to make sure and go back to the drawing board!!!!!
So with these news and Sweet Tides also worried about their son's choice of residency program and the weather which was gray and drab our exploration efforts were really half-hearted. We dinghied all the way to the Pirate's Lair, where we hadn't managed to get to the day before, and it was very beautiful. We just were too preoccupied to fully appreciate it.
We do have a plan for the next few days, we'll go back north first to Hawksbill, then Shroud, then Nassau again. The rest will depend on our phone call tomorrow.
