From the log

This update is definitely very late in coming. We had to go through a whole bunch of photos to select the ones to include. And we had trouble, so there are alot! On November 26 we sailed from Barbados to St. Lucia. We had a good overnight sail of about 100 nautical miles in 17 hours. We got to St. Lucia just in time to pick up our great friends Kari and Jerry who flew in from Atlanta to help celebrate Lili`s 50th birthday! We stopped in St. Lucia in June of this year and decided it was a great place to spend some more time. The island is very mountainous and lush green with numerous places to anchor. The people are very friendly, and they make good rum and beer! It is also the location of the famous beautiful Pitons. These peaks end right at the waters edge and we decided that climbing one would be a good activity to mark the milestone!

    Following along from Houston and loving every update. That shot of the anchorage at dawn is going straight on my wall.

    We crossed paths with you in Bocas years ago and have been reading ever since. Fair winds to you both.

    My grandkids and I look up every island you mention on the map. It has turned into our little geography lesson.

    Twenty years of this and still going. You two are the reason we finally put a deposit on a boat of our own.
