Were still having a incredible journey.We left Deshaies in Guadeloupe to head for the Saintes,a small group of french Islands about fifty miles away.No more fish caught as of yet.But we try every passage.Maybe a new lure is needed.The Saintes was beautiful,clean and very quaint.The further south the less english is spoken.Not easy to communicate to say the least. Great anchorages with crystal waters.We spent a few days in Dominica,which was real neat.Boat boys rushed to us as we approached the harbor.We picked a guy called Cobra aka Maccoroni who gave us a lot of information about moorings and tours.He also told us of the night harbor security.A local who rode around in his dingy all night.When we got up six oclock one morning he was out there alright, floating around sleeping.We went on a river tour that was where Pirates Of The Carribean was filmed,He rowed us a mile up river that was amazingly tropical and serene.A third world country to say the least.We also went to some water falls up in the rain forest that were unbelievable.The island food was terrible but a great experience.We met some new friends from the UK whom we spent a little time with.We then headed back north to Point a Pitre a big port in Guadeloupe.Dominica was our farthist point south we will go.Carnaval in Point a Pitre was this weekend and it was amazing.The costumes,music,entertainment was crazy and went on for hours.The culture was unblievable.Heading back to Antigua in a few days.All the best to everyone at home.We miss you all.
Love LIsa Jon and Jonny
Great pictures. You sure all look so happy. Funny about the so called night harbor security. The waterfalls in the rain forest must have been beautiful. If you miss snow, I can send some pictures. Miss seeing you at the salon. I'll look forward to some new pictures. Love, Lyn
