First let me say that the internet is poor here so I'll have to be brief.
We had a fantastic sail here from La Gomerra, in the Canaries. Just 18 days straight down the wind with twin Yankees poled out most of the time. Some days we notched up 150 odd nautical miles.
Since arriving we have been able to swim to the silver sands which they call the beach! The weather is good, (understatement) but intermittent hot rain showers which last 2-10 minutes and are sooooo refreshing!
Our friends aboard Folly are here as are Moosher and Life O Reilly.
Ashore so far we have toured the South Eastern coast and seen the Orchid Gardens. Travel around is easy with a regular bus service plus yellow buses and minivans in competition but for the same price BA$2 for any trip.
We have some American friens coming out to St Barts so will probably sail there to see them, and then back to St Lucia where some English friends are having a holiday- but as you know plans change by the day....
I'll try some pictures if this works
