We do not have internet access on Annecam as we require a new sim card for each Island so we are posting this blog via one of the many internet cafes that are available to us. We will be back on line when we get to the Grenadines as we plan to stay between there and Trinidad for the hurricane season.
We are slowly getting all of the planned boat jobs completed, we now have the parts required to repair our old outboard motor and a set of cables to secure our dinghy with a padlock. We are almost ready to move south to Antigua, so Saturday or Sunday we are planning an overnight sail to arrive in day light, that is if the weather is ok to go.
We had a lovely evening with Canadian’s Sheryl and Paul from Distant Shores joining us on Annecam for my birthday, they have their own sailing adventure TV series available on DVD at www.distantshores.ca. We have several of their DVD sets and I do recommend that anyone who is planning to cruise get your hands on these information packed sets.
Today Sheryl, Annie, Paul and I took an adventurous bus ride over to Philipsburg to take in our first carnival, wow! What an amazing effort the locals go to. The colour, the dance and the atmosphere were nothing short of brilliant, we all thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon.
Some day’s life is very spectacular on Annecam.
