The Gtown Workout

Coming to Georgetown is always a shock to the system. While we lead a somewhat active lifestyle, we are not against lounging around the boat for half the day after spending the morning at the beach. Once we get to Georgetown, there are so many activities and friends to spend time with that we barely even see the boat!

We definitely stay active here and have in fact been doing so much that we are exhausted by the time the sun sets and are frequently in bed by 8pm (mind you we are up with the sun...so don't judge!) Not only are we exhausted but we are finally realizing that we are no longer in our 20s and exercise comes with a price - pulled muscles, aching muscles that we haven't used in forever and bruises galore.

Regardless, we have joined the cruisers softball team and practice twice a week for a couple hours. We also wormed our way into the competitive beach volleyball group = a "prestigious" group of about 10 men who play 3 on 3 and are very good. Somehow we have been allowed to play and we do that every day for a few hours. Add to that at least an hour on the beach swimming and playing with Koa in the afternoons and before we know it, it's dinnertime and we can both barely keep our eyes open through an entire movie.

On the nights we have sundowners with other boaters, we come back from the beach, do a quick rinse off so we are presentable, grab a snack and some drinks and head over to socialize until just after sunset. On those nights, we don't even bother with dinner - some lite appetizers and a few drinks and we are good for the night.

In our "down time" we work on boat projects, blog, check the weather and explore all the trails on the island with Koa. Brad also participates in poker twice a week - he has to live up to our boat name after all....

So on those few days when we play softball all morning and then decide to skip volleyball and lounge on the beach all afternoon, we love to just relax and soak in the sun and the leisure. And although we stay busy here, we love it and wouldn't have it any other way. So bring on the sun, sand, muscle aches and pains, and bottles of advil - we are here to cram as many good times and memories into our short visit as we can!
