Subject: A short tale...... The team Blue Beyond ( Gary , Kathryn, Mark and me)
decided to move south to Marigot bay , and we spent a very pleasant 2 days
there, Gary and Kathyn decided that they would like to try and walk to Anse Le
Rey , a fishing town a few miles along the coast , the area is very hilly and
not that easy in the heat , they caught a local bus and when
there arrived they wanted to visit a waterfall nearby but were
informed by the bus driver that there were 'bad men 'there and not to go unless
they were armed ..... he didn't specify what arms were needed , but they
thought this may be good advice so gave it a miss .
 Gary and Kathyyn , note the black yacht behind was 120 ftWe then moved on to Soufriere , we were met about a
mile out by Phillip a liscened taxi and as it turned out a man with fingers in
many pies , he took us to a mooring on the south side of the bay opposite a
beach where all the fishermen lived , what a contrast .... we were on Blue
Beyond and there was a whole street of shacks , but really facinating , it was
really busy with washing being hung out , children running around , men hauling
up the boats , and along the beach pigs were running around and wallowing in the
sea . I was quite facinated by these pigs and while I was watching ( we were
only 50ft from this beach ) A young lad walked along with his large dog on a
lead and the next thing it went for a piglet and had it by the tale ... what a
noise .. but the dog managed to bite the tail right off ... I felt sorry for
this poor pig , no-one else took any notice , but it wasn't to be the pigs day ,
it took itself off to a rock only to be slung over the shoulder of a very large
guy again screaming as only a pig can do , only this time as it was Independance
day , it was going to be SUPPER.....
 Piggys last day ......Back to Phillip , Gary really wanted to visit the
rainforest trail and phillip saud he could arrange it all for a price , quite a
good price , so we were all arranged to go the next day but in the evening
Kathryn felt a bit unwell so we had to cancel . we decided to up the anchor and
we headed off to the Pitons.
