First glimpse of the Prince Rupert anchorage in Portsmouth Dominica: sailors of the world unite in this large and protected bay!



Apres le mouillage ds la baie de Prince Rupert, nous avions hate au samedi, jour de marche. Quelle atmosphere et quelle gentillesse des habitants! Nous avons tout deguste: de l'eau de la noix de coco jusqu'au chips de plantain, en passant par le fish & chips et les gentilles madames du marche! Tous les produits sont frais, il y a des mangues qui tombent du ciel, des crapauds geants qu'on appelle poulet des montagnes! Et le rhum local: Red Cap!




We were looking forward to Saturday, market day. Delightful to see the Dominicains so kind and joyous, welcoming us to their islands and selling their stuff: coconut water, fresh produce, fish & chips or plantain chips, you name it!



















Coconut water! Mangoes, fish and rum...all good for the health! No wonder such a great number of Dominicans live over 100 years !
There is a sense of harmony waling through the streets of this little paradise...all natural 100%!
