On Sunday we were picking up our granddaughter Molly (10) for a few days aboard, this turned out to be a full on few days and as much as we love her I think we were both glad to see her go back to her mother on Thursday evening.
Molly makes friends easily and was soon pointing out the mullet to others around the pontoon, fishing rods came out but none were hooked. Then it was swimming to the shore to collect sea shells with another swimmer. After that came learning to row the dinghy which Molly picked up quite quickly but getting me very wet with the paddles in the process, good job it was a nice hot sunny day. Then came trying to use the outboard which Molly had real problems with so she decided not to learn that.
In the evening before bed we played “Uno” with Molly for a while.
