The EJ's Voyage

We had a good week in Antigua. Spent two wonderful days anchored off Nanni Island (next to Green Island). Small bay, beautiful water, no one around. Bliss.
 
We sailed pass a big turtle. We probably scared the poor thing!
 
Had to go to Harmony Hall for dinner - could not miss that. Food was delicious as well as some extraordinary old fashioned rum punches!
 
Met our friends and also Peel neighbours Max and Myanni who are on a week's holiday here. Had lunch with them on Sunday. It was Max's birthday. Max and Mike fitted a game of golf in yesterday. Cindy (who joined us last Friday for the rest of the trip to Florida) and I went for a long hike around the cape ending in English Harbour.
 
This morning we are off to Nevis Island. 50nm. No wind at present but as we know here it can pick up in no time at all.
 
You'll have to wait the next blog for more news...
 
Love to all
Catherine and Mike
