Lucie and Zaza |
My cousin Elizabeth (Zaza) is visiting from France. Her daughter Lucie moved here a few years ago, so we get to see Zaza more often now. Zaza's last summer visit was 4 years ago, when we had an unusual fog roll in while we were on the water. Sunday was hot, humid and cloudy with a brisk wind, and we watched the weather as we headed out for a sail.
Emily, Lucie, and Zaza each took a turn at the helm before we headed back to the club. After a little refreshment, we took a break from the heat by taking a walk along the boardwalk on the lake side of the island, where the wind was welcome.
When we had been returning to the club after our sail, we had seen a boat coming in behind us dragging its mast. Our friend Andrew, of Serica, had been out on the lake when the damaged boat crashed into another and lost its mast. He snapped a photo just after the accident and stayed in the area until the police boat came out to offer assistance.
