St Lucia is a really beautiful island. We had a great tour with Fast Eddie who took us to a number of the small local fishing villages, The Pitons, a rainforest and Diamond Falls and botanical garden. The scenery is breathtaking of both the mountains and the ocean.
Our original plan was to take advantage of the weather windows and try and get as close to Grenada as possible by early August but as you see we are still here. Grenada is typically least likely to have a hurricane. The weather gods are not our side right now and we have moved from the outside anchorage to a mooring inside a better protected area to take cover in case the weather really turns for the worst. At the moment they are forecasting that this tropical wave may form into tropical low which could result in a tropical storm or a hurricane and could hit anywhere from Grenada to Martinique. Today we removed the jib which needed to some sewing done to but we will not put it back up until we know how things are to pan out. Stay tuned and as long as we have internet we will keep you posted.
