on the yacht heading into the mainland. I could see the small harbor city nearing closer as we flew across the water. The salty sea air whipped my ponytail around and I would get the occasional misty shower as I sat on the bow of the ship, watching the islands float on

one of the local ports. I looked out and noticed several yachts parked, but one caught my eye at the very edge. It was a smaller boat, but several people were bustling around it.
