We left late, slugs that we are...11:15 when we let the mooring line free! The seas and the wind are still out of the north but it's an hour and a half at most to get to Marigot Bay so we can tough it out for that short a distance.

Really, three hours is ridiculous!!! We thought we do the 'cruiser's thing', anchor and enjoy the freedom of paying noone or any biz. We knew ahead of time there isn't a lot of room for many boats and after 15: we were calling Marigot Bay Marina! We took another mooring! This time it comes with the bennies of fast internet wifi service, showers, laundry and a grocery store right on the property. Can we say "Very posh, very pricey"?
Again, we said we were not going to stay and before you know it six days have come and gone! We hiked, we trekked to Castries for new "LIME" cell phone service, farmers markets, and new friends, shucks!

We have sure changed neighborhoods and the caliber of our new neighbors has increased as well.
