Hi there, it has been a while, huh. We are having a great time here in Guadalupe. Lisa had her birthday in the rainforest (underneath a waterfal) as she wished! The rainforests here are as juicy as they get! Jana had her birthday in St. Kitts, she also wanted to spend her day in the rainforest. We should of wore our hardhats...mangoes falling everywhere...sticky fingers! mmm, they are so sweet. Now we are planning to sail to Dominica and guess what? check-out some more rain forests!
Nothing wrong with that! The sailing has been the most exhilirating of our travels, 20 knotts of wind on the foward quarter and beam, cruising @ 7 knotts just a great exciting feeling. Our dog Henna doesn't seem to think so, she tucks down in the cockpit and waits for the calmness of the next anchorage. Well our mainsail (quilt) has a hole in it and we are going to try to mend it ourselves this time! Projects never end on a boat! every week a list is made....and some of it even gets done! anyway till next time! all the best
