We are so glad to check out this intriguing city with a clear creole atomosphere! Now this is patwah speaking at it's best!

We met up with Joyce and John on Cheloni to begin our exploration of this carenage bustling with energy that the farmers, fish mongers and flower folks must've invented. It's so electric... yet very private! I had the hardest time, buying everything I could recognize because that's the only way they would let us photograph them...most of the women anyway. The men seem to like us blonde, blue eye women, because we got some great photos.

The day was packed with the architecture, the Place de la Victoire (where street theatre, artists and vendors selling anything they think a tourist will buy is found), museums, and Chez Roberts! The author of our guide, Chris Doyle, spoke highly of this restaurant with good food right in the heart of the city! Wow!

One day is not enough!

Vessel Name: Altair
Vessel Make/Model: Tartan 34'
Hailing Port: Coconut Grove Sailing Club
Crew: Dudley Clark and Becky Butler
About: Dudley has owned this Tartan sloop and has been cruising on her since 1986. Becky joined the good sloop back in 2000 when we first started cruising together and he has been 'training' me ever since! I couldn't be happier! I've been sailing all my life, but cruising is a whole different fish!
Extra: This is the most extended cruise we've braved on this wonderful, old boat of ours which is planned to be about 2 years! We left Miami in late February of 2008 and want to get below the hurricane belt by the end of July! Ok, so it's July, 2011...we're close, but not home yet!
