With four of Heidi's amazing friends, we are back in The Saintes, Guadaloupe, for just two days, after a text-book perfect sail up from Dominica yesterday: the seas were only about 4 - 5' and the winds, once past the shadow of Dominica, were steady from the east at 18 - 22 knots ... conditions considered terrific Caribbean sailing. Two of Heidi's friends, Judy and Debbie each masterfully sailed Centime for about an hour. Debbie is clearly a natural! I definitely see a sailboat in her future.
Tomorrow, back to Dominica for market Day and some local cooking lessons.

03/15/2012, Dominica - Carib Territory
After our amazing experience at the falls (see below) our guide Paul took us to "Carib Territory." Pure Caribs or Kalinagos are native Americans with Asian features who predated the European settlers on the island. Today many live on the windward or eastern side of the coast
We were famished and stopped at this great little restaurant for lunch. First we had delicious charcoal smoked chicken with roots vegetables, dasheen, yams and plantains, then we sampled a few of the locally made alcohols (pictures above). Paul taught us Dominican cheers and phrases. We clinked our glasses saying "Irie" meaning we're well and very happy.
