A last walk to Hillsborough Carriacou!
This morning we went back into town to check out at Immigration and Customs and to do our last groceries shopping. Because we are not going to be able to make it to Martinique before Christmas, we had to stack up on wine, gin, flour, cheese etc... as resources in Bequia (St Vincent and The Grenadines) are more limited and more expensive. By the time we get to Martinique, we will be starving for French goods and spirits!

Again today, we enjoyed our beautiful walk. This time in 96 degrees humidity and about 30C.
On our way back, Norbert, our favorite bus driver, confirmed that the distance from Tyrrel Bay to Hillsborough is about 3.8 miles long! He said and that he respected our desire to stretch our legs rather than taking his bus to town.

We will miss the nice people of Carriacou but we look forward to be moving on to our Christmas destination (Bequia) where we will meet with our German friend Uwe. We understand that he has to follow a long and complex travel path to meet with us in Bequia...
