We were also treated to our second whale of the trip - albeit about 1.5 miles in the distance.
We also treated an unsuspecting swedish yacht that passed near us to ABBA's Dancing Queen at full volume through the loud hailer.
Easter Monday in Dominica is a "beach day" - and on arrival in the beautiful Prince Rupert Bay we were treated to the sight of quite some party at the Purple Turtle. We were also greeted by Alexis, who swiftly arranged for us and excellent road tour of the northern island for the following day.
The hard work having been done, it was time to play with the fleet.
Below we see Captain Matt and Ella in the newest addition.
Below is Daisy and me in the Terra. Daisy is a natural mainsheet girl if ever there was one.
With darkness came the sunset cruise - assisted by a Captain Matt special cocktail!
Jenny and Matt kindly put E&D to bed whilst we spent hours trying to get out of the Kayak....
Of course one thing lead to another and after Jenny's excellent dinner, Flying Cloud competed with (and beat) the noise of the Purple Turtle....
Of course the clothes pegs came out in honour of Julia...
