Flores

14 December 2011
We spent about 5 days on Flores and really enjoyed our stay. It didn't hurt that the marina had just been completed and hadn't started charging yet. The island is quite small. You can drive around the island in about 3 hours. It is very beautiful with huge waterfalls and numerous volcanic features. We met many fellow travelers with the best representation coming from France. Our next destination is Angra, a World Heritage site. Angra is only a 30 hour sail or so. Emily painted an Argo logo on the sea wall. This helps to guarantee good luck which is a very good thing when crossing large expanses of ocean.
