Whitehall Bay, George Town
It’s a nice being moored off George Town. Each day I dinghy
to the dock outside the Lobster Pot, a nice waterfront restaurant and one of
the best dive centers, and then cycle to work, which is much closer than when I
was at the yacht club. It’s also more convenient here for laundry and
supermarkets.
I’m tied to one of five free public mooring balls in
Whitehall Bay, so it’s the same price as Governor’s Creek, but the water is
crystal clear and I’m near lots of good snorkel spots. The only problem is that
it can be rolly. Even without wind or waves, there can be big swells, low and
spaced apart I imagine from some distant storm, that make my boat rock like
crazy.

Just as one set of paperwork has been done, I seem to get
another. My three month work visa ends in January, so I got my application form
for the next one which will be for a year. Pages of forms to fill, plus a
medical requiring X-Ray and blood test for HIV. So yesterday I went to a
doctor’s and an X-ray clinic (both were full of people needing medicals and X-rays
for their work visa applications). My health insurance covered the medical and
blood test, but I had to pay $35 for the X-ray.
