Soufriere, St
Lucia
We left Rodney Bay at 14:00 for the
eighteen mile journey to Soufriere. As we approached
the Pitons came into their dominating beauty. The rock on
the left hand side of the bay. Anse de Pitons coming
closer.
When we had picked Miffy up from the
airport in February, we stopped the car en route to Rodney Bay to take these
pictures overlooking Soufriere.
Skipper all
smiles
The town coming
into view. A boat boy coming out to meet us. The mooring buoy he helped
us on, £5 for up to two nights, not bad eh - Anchoring is not an option in
this really deep bay. Time for a swim off the back of the girl, but don't close
your eyes as the current sweeps you out to sea in seconds.
We settled for supper and a game of
Upword with a double rainbow at the mouth of the bay.
Saturday night is party night. We had two hours of Country and Western followed
by two of soft Reggae.
We have got quite used to seeing
chickens scruffing about on beaches but this was a first for us - pigs rooting around amongst fishing boats
???
Complete with beach front
semi-detached pig houses.
The townsfolk are very
friendly. The photo opportunities vast.
The Pitons
make for a stunning backdrop
ALL IN ALL A VERY PLEASANT
EVENING IN THIS QUAINT PLACE.
