Sunday - a good mix of work and play. We got up early this morning, at 6h00, and 15 minutes later, heiner was applying the first coat of antifouling ...coffee was still in the making! Thta's how dedicated we are ! We worked on several projects and by noon, we had our work done! The3 afternoon was fun and began with a creole lunch prepared by Toni and a friend, Gisele. Both worked hard in the kitchen to serve us a very full-sized meal. As a starter, Toni had prepared a seafood potage with tender pieces of conch and whelks, chillies and cucumber. The main dish was an assortment of breadfruit, two kinds of sweet potatos, macaroni pie, and rice with pumpkin pieces. The chicken was juicy and well spiced. And as a drink, we had home made Mauby juice: it s bark of a tree that is boiled and sweetened. Served on ice, it has a refreshing flavor.

After such a succulent meal, we sat on the balcony overlooking the St Vincent passage betwen St Vincent and Bequia. We then took a drive to Fort Charlotte and were once more admiring the breathtaking mountains and ocean views of the island.




We ended up going to the famous Basil's in Kingstown for a couple of Hairoun beers and tremendously enjoyed their air conditioned and dark bar! Great way to end the hard work week!
