At Anchor

Tuesday, June 29, 2010

Here we are in Martinque and having a wonderful time. Thé first photos you see are in a little fishing village that we stoped at for the night when we sailed from Dominica. It was a rather picturquest place.
The fisherman started laying his nets before daylight while I was drinking my coffee. As we rounded the south end of the island we came upon Diamond rock, in the 1800 hundreds the Britts could not afford to put ships in the area so the commissioned the rock as a ship an hauled cannons to the top of the snake infested island and caught the Spanish by suprise and whipped there ass.







Someone on my e-mail said we did not include any photos of us and we were still in Texas and downloading photos of the places we were suppose to be. Well here is a not so complimentary photo of Karen and I in the anchorage of Marin, better known as the Cul de Sac. This is just for the nobeliever on my e-mail.





Asyou can see Marin is a sailing commuinty and not much else. There are boats here with no motors and a service that pulls them to the channel where they can start there day of sailing. Ofcourse there is every charter company here also ,but that's to be expected.
OK I have rattled on enough and the light is getting bad here at the Mango Bar so I guess you will hear from us in Bequia in the Grenadines.
See y'all down the road.
Mike & Karen
