Back in the Water

Only snorkeling but a step in the right direction. There was a lot of swell and not great visibility so we spent our time looking at the tops of large boulders.

We are back in Petite Anse waiting for a big blow to pass over before we head back up to St Maarten via Guadeloupe and possibly Antigua. Hopefully we will only be there about a week before we can say goodbye to the Eastern Caribbean and sail down to Bonaire. It is a one way ticket but we have talked it through a lot and we are ready to move on.
