Sailing isn't always sailing. Sometimes it's unexpected boat work (engine sputtering/stopping) so your whole leave-early morning plan goes belly up because you're waiting for the charter techs to come fix things (again). Then lighter winds today meant, getting to the mooring field at Trellis Bay required motoring...first come, first serve moorings only. No snorkeling stop at the Dogs. 😢 (Had we left when intended, we'd have had plenty of time to sail *and* stop.)

But we got an open mooring at Trellis, did some snorkeling off the boat to a reef nearby, and are relaxing with cheese and salami (and I made a lime-mango juice-prosecco drink for myself). Plans include checking out Aragorn's Studio and eating dinner at the Loose Mongoose!

When a #GPS indicates that a #BVI user is nearing their destination, that is when All_Aboard should be opened. The #app uses the phones' #camera to detect street signs from 30 to 50 feet away. It then uses auditory cues to direct the user towards their destination, with the frequency of the sounds changing as they approach the endpoint.

New app effectively aids #blind and #VisuallyImpaired commuters in finding #BusStops

The researchers developed a mobile app called All_Aboard, which is meant to be used in conjunction with mainstream GPS systems and focuses on improving micro-navigation.
