However, getting back was more problematic. All the local buses appeared to be full and wouldn't stop, so we decided to start walking towards Dennery, about 15km, and hoped one would stop. We hadn't realised that the road would be too dangerous for a bus to stop and so ended walking most of the way in the hot sun before we finally reached a bus stop (just below the prison on the hilltop!). Another full bus went past and then a taxi stopped and gave us a very good price for taking us back to Castries, too good a price to refuse, although he tried to increase it but Roy stood firm!
We arrived back on the boat, safe but tired; I think we are ready to leave now and the weather is looking good for the next few days.
