Dudley just wanted to relax, listen to the Universe's music...wind and waves lapping at the hull! I, on the other hand, jumped into warp speed, got the oars untied which were so secure they needed a miracle to release, and was off! Didn't want to take time to lower the outboard so I just rowed. I just couldn't wait to see the turtles and begin my underwater photography. I tied to the barrier which is a rope held in place by floats preventing boats with deep keels or big props from entering the sanctuary and completely surrounds the turtle feeding area! What a peaceful, beautiful place to share...and check out this beauty. She/He(?) is a green turtle and could possibly be one of the lucky ones that Brother Orton King released back into the wild. Met him at his sanctuary last year in Bequia where he saves, protects, raises and releases both Green and Hawksbill turtles back to their savage wonderland.

I'm really in love with this place and there is Mayreau right behind the Cays for provisions. On top of that, we have Walter...he will bring you anything you need (within reason of course) if you tell him before he returns home to Union Island for delivery the next day! Ice, milk, his wife Lorna's famous banana bread!

So you see why I could 'move' here!
