Ashore in Little Bay
 
 
 
 
 
 
First job was to visit Customs in their smart building - then Immigration by the Police in an old refrigeration unit
 
 
 
 
 
On one side a continual flow of trucks filled with sand and a beautiful welcome sign
 
 
 
 
On the beach the wind gave Bear's hat a new tricorn shape
 
 
 
 
 
The beach with black sand and a little freighter called Abiding Love - we had heard on the radio this morning
 
 
 
 
 
 
Possible 'One Careful owner'
 
 
 
 
 
Time to check out the beach bar. Very welcoming place.
 
 
 
 
 
My small Slippery Nipple - Vodka and Baileys, the glass was full for three pounds. Bear only has eyes for me on Valentine's Day.......
 
 
 
 
........... No - too busy watching Abiding Love leaving with a mixed cargo
 
 
 
 
Off she goes, saying farewell to Beez, on her left
 
 
 
 
Bear on the crowded beach
 
 
 
 
The Kingdom of Redonda
 
 
 
 
 
 
En route back to Baby Beez, I had fun with some buoys
 
 
 
 
So did Bear
 
 
 
 
 
Crab pots ??? Tetrapods
 
 
   
 
 
Beez resting quietly. Never been anywhere with half the land mass restricted and / or because of an active volcano - cannot wait to explore tomorrow
 
 
 
 
We had not been ashore long before we realised these are the friendliest, most welcoming people we have ever met 
 
 
 
 
 
ALL IN ALL A VERY SPECIAL PLACE - WITH VERY SPECIAL PEOPLE.
